ARC News Intern (WHAM) - Fall 2026

Rochester, NY

Job Description
WHAM Fall News Intern
Step inside the newsroom where stories break, voices matter, and information moves at the speed of now.
We're looking for a passionate, curious, and driven News Intern to join our team for Fall 2026. As part of a forward-thinking media organization, you won't just observe-you'll actively contribute to the storytelling that informs and connects our community across platforms.
Sinclair's newest news concept is ARC: Authentic, Relevant, and Community focused news. ARC is a unique concept that was created to reach the modern viewer with updated style, graphics, and music. We have a cast that not only explain news happening today, but also have a conversation about the news and what is going on across the country and in your local community. Our goal is to help viewers truly feel the story, connecting their emotions to our news conversation. ARC is currently in many of our markets across the country and actively expanding.
From breaking news to digital-first storytelling, this is your opportunity to experience what modern journalism really looks like.
What You'll Do
This is a fast-paced, real newsroom-no two days are the same.
Create & Contribute: Assist in researching, writing, and producing news stories for broadcast and digital platforms
Be Where the Action Is: Work alongside reporters, anchors, producers, and photographers-both in the newsroom and out in the field
Pitch Ideas: Bring fresh story ideas to the table and help shape coverage that matters to our audience
Get Hands-On: Learn how to shoot video, frame compelling visuals, and understand what makes a story stand out
Behind the Scenes: Gain exposure to control room operations and how live broadcasts come together in real time
What You'll Gain
This internship is designed to build real skills-not just fill a line on your résumé.
Hands-on experience in modern, multi-platform journalism
A deeper understanding of how today's newsrooms operate-from broadcast to digital and social
Opportunities to build a professional portfolio with published or produced work
Mentorship from experienced journalists who know the industry inside and out
Valuable connections to jumpstart your career in media
To be considered, candidates must:
Be at least 18 years of age
Be currently enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate program, or a recent graduate
Be at least a sophomore at an accredited college/university
Be eligible to work in the United States
Be available to work on-site at WHAM in Rochester, NY approximately 15 hours per week for 10 weeks
Be able to start between August 24th - September 14th
Have reliable transportation (housing/relocation is not provided)
Be passionate about local news, storytelling, and community impact
Thrive in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment
All candidates must apply through our careers portal and complete pre-employment requirements.
Why Join Us
Because journalism in 2026 is more dynamic than ever-and this is your chance to be part of it.
Join a team that values accuracy, creativity, and impact. Help tell stories that matter, develop skills that translate across platforms, and take your first step into a career in news.
