News Anchor (Part-Time)

WSYX/ABC 6 is seeking a curious, confident, and engaging part-time host for After the Headlines, a new weekday 7:30 p.m. program built to take viewers deeper into the stories they've just seen in our regular newscasts.

This is a conversation-driven show, not a traditional newscast. The host will guide discussions with reporters, newsmakers, and community voices, helping audiences understand what's behind the headlines, why it matters and what questions remain. The right candidate is an excellent journalist and communicator who can bring energy, authenticity, and thoughtful curiosity to every conversation.

What You'll Do

• Host After the Headlines and lead clear, engaging conversations about the day's important local stories.
• Work with producers, reporters, and editors to identify stories that benefit from added context, explanation, or accountability.
• Prepare thoughtful questions, research topics, and help shape discussions that are informative, fair, and compelling.
• Collaborate with reporters and other Sinclair journalists, drawing on their expertise and firsthand reporting to deepen the conversation.
• Conduct interviews with newsmakers, experts, and community members in studio, remotely and in the field as needed.
• Contribute to the show's development across broadcast, streaming, social and digital platforms.
• Maintain strong editorial judgment, accuracy, and ethical standards.
• Participate in promotional and community activities as assigned.

What We're Looking For

• A strong journalist with excellent writing, interviewing, and communication skills.
• A natural conversational presence who can make complex topics understandable and keep discussions moving.
• Sound news judgment, curiosity, and the ability to ask direct, thoughtful follow-up questions.
• Confidence working live and adapting when conversations or breaking news take an unexpected turn.
• A collaborative approach and the ability to work closely with producers, reporters and colleagues across platforms.
• Experience in television news, reporting, anchoring, hosting, interviewing or a related field is preferred.
• A degree in journalism, communications or a related field, or an equivalent combination of education and experience, is preferred.

This is a part-time position. Schedule and hours will be discussed with candidates.
