Washington City Paper Intern Guide Internships Washington City Paper is an alternative news weekly with a circulation of 98,000. We offer a paid, writing internship three times a year. We expect 20 hours a week from interns. In return we pay minimum wage.
Internships are flexible, but usually last about three to four months.
Anyone with ability and drive should come out of here with several decent clips, from either our news or arts sections. We put a high premium on good writing and fresh ideas. Our newsroom is casual and friendly, but interns must rely on their own initiative to find story ideas and generate copy. Send us a message. Washington Free Weekly Inc.
