THE DETAILS

Any PMJA News Organization member can request assistance from the Editor Corps.  Not a member?  Join today!

You'll be charged for each hour an editor works with your station.  That rate includes not only paying the editor $85/hour, but also administrative and payroll tasks that will save your valuable staff time when you are strapped the most.   News managers benefit through time saved in trying to identify, interview and onboard freelance editors while still trying to manage day-to-day tasks. 

Thanks to support from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, members enjoy subsidized hourly rates based on your newsroom size.

Small station 1 - 5 staff $25/hour
Medium station 6 - 15 staff $40/hour
Large station 16 or more staff $65/hour

You can choose to pay when you make your request or to be invoiced.
