About The Position

WKYT, home to Lexington's highest-rated newscasts, is looking for a Full-Time Videographer/Editor.

We've got all the tools you will need to succeed. From next generation cameras and laptop editors to a staff of talented Photographers, MMJ’s, reporters, and Producers that all share a desire to tell great stories and be the best.
