About The Position

KSN is looking for an upper-level college student who is ready to jump into the world of TV news. The internship will include working with multiple team members to learn many different skills in the newsroom, including shadowing producers, reporters, photographers, editors, and other newsroom team members. After an initial training process, the internship will have a specific focus on photojournalism (shooting and editing video), multi-media journalism (shooting and editing video, writing stories for broadcast and digital), and/or producing newscasts (editing video, stacking newscasts, writing for broadcast and digital), based on the skills and experience of the individual intern. Some sports coverage is expected for those who shoot and edit video, focusing on high school football. The position is for the 2026 Summer Semester, located in Wichita, Kansas, and will remain open until filled. There is no "normal" schedule in a newsroom, so expect to work odd hours, including weekends, early mornings, or evenings. The internship schedule will be coordinated with the student's class schedule. This internship is a great way to get your foot in the door, as KSN has hired previous interns for full-time work.
