Internship DescriptionThe Associated Press has been breaking news since it was created in 1846. For more than a century and a half, men and women of The Associated Press have had the privilege of bringing truth to the world. They have gone to great lengths, overcome great obstacles – and, too often, made great and horrific sacrifices – to ensure that the news was reported quickly, accurately and honestly. Our efforts have been rewarded with trust: More people in more places get their news from the AP than from any other source. The summer 2014 Global News Internship is a paid, highly selective, 12-week individually tailored training program for students who are aspiring cross-format journalists. Interns must have experience and/or training in video and one other format. They will contribute to AP’s text, video, photo and interactive reporting. Applicants get to work in an AP bureau under the supervision of a designated trainer. They’ll cover breaking news and complete a final enterprise project working across multiple formats that may be featured in many media outlets around the world.
