Rappahannock News & Foothills Forum Reporter

Rappahannock County, VA

A traditional print weekly for most of its existence, the Rappahannock News — working in partnership with Foothills Forum, an editorially and functionally independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit — has evolved into a cross-platform local news source that meets its audience wherever it turns for credible community information.

Open Position

Location: Washington, Virginia

Beat: The Futures Beat

Position:

A rural community at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains, a short drive from the nation’s capital, faces unprecedented threats to its character and scenic beauty. The reporter covers a cash-strapped county at a crossroads as rampant development from Northern Virginia, including giant data centers, threatens to encroach. Development brings promises of big tax revenues and jobs. But residents fear loss of farmland, environmental degradation, unquenchable energy demands and a worsening affordable housing crisis.

Salary and Benefits: $52,000 ($44,000 base salary; $8,000 rent subsidy, paid monthly)

- A flexible, hybrid workplace. Both Rapp Media and Foothills Forum are small teams. We pride ourselves in offering a supportive environment.
- Full-time employees receive paid holidays and three weeks of paid time off initially.
- Full-time employees are eligible to enroll in our medical and dental insurance plans, with a significant company contribution toward the monthly premium.

Moving Stipend: Up to $500

Skills: Writing, TV / Video, Radio / Podcast, Photography
