We’re hiring freelance documenters to cover public meetings. Our program is an innovative digital collaboration between residents and the press, helping to deliver more local news to the communities we serve.
Our reporters choose the assignments they want to cover.
Reporters are paid $50 to $75 per assignment and are paid monthly via e-check, so you never wait for the “check in the mail.”
Most work is remote, using online tools such as email and video to cover meetings and report on what local leaders say and the votes they take. However, there are a few in-person assignments for those who like to be on the scene.
During remote work, reporters may also call businesses to learn about new shops and restaurants coming to the area.
Documenters can access news-writing training resources and our Assignment Sheet to view available assignments, dues dates, pay rates, and other important information. Once there, reporters may claim assignments they’re interested in writing.
All regularly contributing documenters also get a complimentary Potomac Local News membership for full access to content on our website.
This is an excellent opportunity for work-based learning students, college students, retirees, or anyone curious about their community.
Interested? Complete our quick application.
Thank you.
