Milwaukee’s architecture and neighborhoods flaunt its history, from its industrial roots to its historic influx of German, Polish, Italian, and... Irish immigrants.

One of the great things about living in Milwaukee is that you get all the benefits while spending less than you would in most big cities in the United States.

· Work with managers and station attorneys to ensure coverage is fair, ethical, and legally defensible
· Work with our digital department to ensure investigative content has a strong presence on all platforms

Experience Requirements:
· 5+ years live reporting experience
· 2+ years investigative reporting experience
· Demonstrated ability to enterprise stories and develop contacts
· Demonstrated record of obtaining and reporting on court documents and other public records
