McClatchy jobs in Sacramento, CA

The Sacramento Bee is building a team of reporters who will serve our existing subscribers and grow their ranks by keeping watch over taxpayer money in the communities we serve, attacking the news of the day with urgency, and working collaboratively with others in our newsroom to amass and analyze data on everything from government payrolls to educational outcomes to crime. This journalist will be someone who is eager to jump on the important stories that our communities are talking about right now - with an emphasis on consistently publishing quick-turn enterprise and investigative work. Are a community's water, sewer and garbage rates about to go up? Are culture wars flaring up at meetings of a school board? Is a specific neighborhood seeing a rise in crime? This reporter is on it - asking how, why and who is responsible, with a curiosity and drive to connect with readers. You will be expected to mine these stories from a mix of public-records requests, government agendas, parent and neighborhood associations, social media and business groups and other sources. You will cover select council and school board meetings, with a focus on explaining how decisions made in those corridors of power impact readers' everyday lives. Your daily work product will be the go-to source for news in Roseville (population 150,000) and nearby Lincoln, Rocklin, Loomis, Granite Bay and Auburn, the Placer County seat. Placer County also is home to five school systems with nearly 50,000 students in all. Successful applicants joining our Local Accountability Team must understand the need for speed as well as context. The goal is to help us grow our audience reach and earn loyal readers by quickly and consistently publishing credible, timely and compelling stories about topics "in the news" in Elk Grove and beyond. To that end, this team - helmed by an editor who oversees this watchdog reporter and four others - will collaborate on stories of regional interest. And if a big story emerges in a particular community or region, members will work together to swarm it. McClatchy Media's journalists are expected to take advantage of opportunities to ethically harness and leverage artificial intelligence and other automation to enhance and elevate their work and to find efficiencies that free them to focus on source-building and high-quality, deeply reported journalism. What you'll bring: * Strong writing and reporting skills, excellent news judgment and rock-solid journalism ethics; * Understanding of open records laws and the ability to file, manage and oversee requests pertinent to beat work; * Ability to engage with readers and develop sources and story ideas on social media platforms including but not limited to Facebook, Instagram, Threads, X, Nextdoor and Reddit; * The ability to shoot basic photos and videos; * Understanding of SEO and other optimization opportunities and a demonstrated ability to learn new skills in social and digital; * Ability to correctly identify audiences for selected stories; * A strong entrepreneurial spirit, deep curiosity and high energy; * A collaborative style that works comfortably across teams spread throughout the office and company; * Ability to work comfortably in a job that will be fast-paced, data-driven, shaped constantly by feedback and experimentation and always evolving; * A track record for innovation, learning and using new skills and technologies, especially AI.

The Sacramento Bee seeks a veteran journalist to show how politics and policies in Washington, D.C., affect Californians' lives by reporting and writing through a distinctly local lens. Based in The Bee newsroom, this reporter will cover our state's Congressional delegation and the recalibration of Congressional representation in the wake of Proposition 50's passage. But this journalist also will go beyond traditional political coverage, forging relationships with federal workers and everyday people to identify problems that require federal government intervention, report on possible solutions and then hold elected officials' accountable for fixing them. Accountability reporting sits at the center of this role. We're looking for a journalist who can flip the script on traditional political reporting, generating stories based on issues faced by people in our core audiences - Greater Sacramento, the Central Valley and San Luis Obispo County - rather than letting Washington decision-making drive our reporting. You must be fair, fearless and enterprising, with a successful track record of source-building and revelatory reporting that rights wrongs and changes lives. Given the enormity of issues facing our state - immigration, housing affordability and homelessness, environmental justice, educational and income equity, just to name a few - you'll work closely with colleagues on our Capitol Reporting Team and others throughout California. Journalism that engages our subscribers and attracts new ones is our North Star, and we're developing deeper relationships with our subscribers through live and virtual events, personality-driven newsletters and by answering readers' questions. McClatchy Media's journalists also are expected to take advantage of opportunities to ethically harness and leverage artificial intelligence and other automation to enhance and elevate their work and to find efficiencies that free them to focus on source-building and high quality, deeply reported journalism. This reporter must be adept at doing all of the above. WHAT YOU'LL BRING: * An ability to flip the political reporting lens from inside-out (policy-making institution to constituents) to outside-in (constituents to policy-making institutions.) * An unyielding intellectual curiosity, where the "why" and "what it means" are equivalent to the "what happened." * Strong writing skills, excellent news judgment and a demonstrated ability to "see the story" that is going to matter to readers. * Ability to build source networks and bring a constant flow of story ideas. * Understanding of open records laws and the ability to file, manage and oversee requests pertinent to beat work. * The ability to shoot basic photos and videos. * A track record for innovation, learning and using new skills and technologies, especially AI. * A willingness to represent The Sacramento Bee in community events or live journalism initiatives. WHAT YOU'LL DO: * Break news, write accountability stories and produce enterprise on the issues and the politicians and public officials whose decisions affect our readers' daily lives. You'll routinely produce "Reality Check" stories. * Leverage AI tools and platforms to strengthen your reporting while finding efficiencies and expanding the sophistication of your work. * Find creative, audience-focused ways to tell political stories that connect with a wide range of readers. * Embrace alternative story formats, experimenting with multimedia storytelling and collaborating with colleagues on our visual and data teams. * Be accurate, fair and unbiased in your reporting and the stories you write. * Bring an unflinching focus on our audience, with a commitment to grow readership. Requirements: A degree in journalism or related field and eight years of experience in a digitally oriented newsroom environment is required. The ability to work flexible hours is essential. This position may require some evening shifts to cover local events. Must have reliable transportation, a valid driver's license and vehicle insurance. To apply, include a persuasive cover letter, your resume and four to six examples of your best work. The anticipated base pay range for this position is between $33.33 and $43.58 per hour based on 37.5 hours per week. Individual base pay may vary within that range depending on job-related knowledge, skills, experience and relevant education. What we'll bring: Ninety miles northeast of San Francisco and 100 miles southwest of Lake Tahoe, Sacramento is a vibrant capital city with a Mediterranean climate, a world-class food and music scene and numerous recreational opportunities, including the 31-mile American River Trail and 2,000 acres of parkland in the city alone.

We deliver the straightforward facts and clear-eyed analysis they need to navigate the most complex political landscape of our lifetimes. Our 1,100+ publishing professionals across the world's key democratic capitals-Washington, Brussels, London, Paris, Berlin, Sacramento, and New York-form the world's premier politics and policy newsroom. We tell the story of how power really works by explaining who wields it and how they plan to exercise it, connecting dots others miss and delivering scoops from sources others don't even know exist. Innovation has always been a core tenet of our story. At launch, we bet that depth would trump scale, that talent would trump traffic, and that politics would become central to modern life. In 2011, we made another bet and launched POLITICO Pro to help decision-makers understand the business of government, transforming both how they shape government action and the business of journalism itself. These bets have made POLITICO the most successful digital news startup of its generation and the indispensable resource for leaders who shape the future. Today, we are a rarity in media: a growing, profitable, and sustainable news organization.

The Sacramento Bee is seeking an ambitious reporter who will focus on covering daily and breaking news on our busy transportation beat, as well as report and write other general assignment stories that resonate with our subscribers in the Sacramento region. This role demands a go-anywhere, do-anything journalist with a sense of urgency, an eye for trends, and the ability to produce compelling news, features and enterprise.

McClatchy Media's journalists are expected to take advantage of opportunities to ethically harness and leverage artificial intelligence and other automation to enhance and elevate their work and to find efficiencies that free them to focus on source-building and high quality, deeply reported journalism. And we're developing deeper relationships with our subscribers through live and virtual events, newsletters and by answering their questions. What you'll bring: * The sense of urgency and accuracy required for covering breaking news, and a curiosity to go deeper and develop enterprise stories off the news; * Strong writing and reporting skills, excellent news judgment and rock-solid journalism ethics; * Understanding of open records laws and the ability to file, manage and oversee requests pertinent to beat work; * The ability to shoot basic photos and videos; * Understanding of SEO and other optimization opportunities and a demonstrated ability to learn new skills in social and digital; * Ability to engage with readers and develop sources and story ideas on social media platforms including but not limited to Facebook, Instagram, Threads, X, BlueSky, Nextdoor and Reddit; * A strong entrepreneurial spirit, deep curiosity and high energy; * A collaborative style that works comfortably across teams spread throughout the office and company; * A track record for innovation, learning and using new skills and technologies, especially AI; * A willingness to represent The Sacramento Bee in community events or live journalism initiatives. Requirements: A degree in journalism or related field and three years of experience in a digitally oriented newsroom environment is required. The ability to work flexible hours is essential. This position may require some evening shifts to cover local events. Must have reliable transportation, a valid driver's license and vehicle insurance. To apply, include a persuasive cover letter, your resume and four to six examples of your best work.

POLITICO illuminates the forces shaping global power. Since 2007, we have delivered intelligence that anticipates tomorrow's headlines, not reports on yesterday's news. As politics has increasingly become the defining force of our era, our work has never been more vital. Cabinet secretaries and Ministers start their mornings with our analysis. CEOs shape strategy around our reporting. Advocacy leaders rely on our insights to move policy. We deliver the straightforward facts and clear-eyed analysis they need to navigate the most complex political landscape of our lifetimes. Our 1,100+ publishing professionals across the world's key democratic capitals-Washington, Brussels, London, Paris, Berlin, Sacramento, and New York-form the world's premier politics and policy newsroom. We tell the story of how power really works by explaining who wields it and how they plan to exercise it, connecting dots others miss and delivering scoops from sources others don't even know exist. Innovation has always been a core tenet of our story. At launch, we bet that depth would trump scale, that talent would trump traffic, and that politics would become central to modern life. In 2011, we made another bet and launched POLITICO Pro to help decision-makers understand the business of government, transforming both how they shape government action and the business of journalism itself. These bets have made POLITICO the most successful digital news startup of its generation and the indispensable resource for leaders who shape the future. Today, we are a rarity in media: a growing, profitable, and sustainable news organization. POLITICO is a subsidiary of Axel Springer SE, a family-owned transatlantic media company headquartered in Berlin and New York. Axel Springer is dedicated to shaping the future of journalism in the free world, believing that a free and informed society is essential to democracy. Learn more about Axel Springer.
