Media Researcher

Media Researchers support the production team at television networks, radio stations, newspapers, and magazines, as well as non-traditional media outlets. They carry out research for upcoming stories and screenings and may source locations for filming, people for interviews, or information to be included in the story (eg, YouTube videos, photographs, witness testimony). Most Media Researchers have screen production and writing skills and may also be involved in the production process.

As a Media Researcher you could be meeting with the production crew to brainstorm ideas for an upcoming segment, searching libraries and digital archives for resources, locating witnesses of a natural disaster to be interviewed, writing content for the agency website, preparing a brief for onscreen presenters, or checking the copyright and usage permissions of a YouTube video.
