ormer Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, who unsuccessfully ran for president in 2008, is reportedly considering a 2016 run, and who ended his nationally syndicated radio show on December 12, is now launching a new publication: The Huckabee Post. Huckabee’s son, David, told ABC News that the Huckabee Post is a “natural extension and expansion” of Huckabee’s media profile. Its Craigslist ad describes Huckabee Post as “a new and exciting online news publication covering news on politics, US, international, media, sports and other general news.”
The Huckabee Post is asking for “full-time reporters with priority given to those who can work in our New York City and Washington, D.C. offices. Outstanding reporters in other cities will also be considered to work remotely.”
The Huckabee Post ad also lays out qualifications for its future reporters:
"Reporters are expected to turn in articles daily, work on a tight deadline, be comfortable in a digital newsroom, be flexible and adapt quickly to changing situations, have good news judgment, be hardworking and self-motivated, and multi-task."
Those who wish to apply must be “able to adapt quickly to the latest editorial technology.” A degree in journalism is “a plus, but not required.” And three years of experience are a must.
Resumes, writing samples, and a cover letter are required as well.
I am not sure if there are any folks in FreeperLand that might qualify. But this is an opportunity to get more conservative reporting if Huckabee selects those types of reporters...
It is listed as Frontpage in the hopes that Freepers might find some conservatives to join this publication to sway it to the right as much as possible.
Huckabee - Christie: Heavyweight showdown!
I’m sure there’s a buck in it for Huck. Inc.
lost me at this point.
I don’t care what the Huckster does, provided he stays out of the Republican primary.
Of course, being the liberal fake that he is, that’s not going to happen.
Perhaps he needs money to cover up more dog-torture and murder by his homosexual son.
Just what we don’t need.....another wind-bag.
He’s actually offering PAID EMPLOYMENT to journalists?
The Governor is about to be crushed in a stampede.
HuffPo meet HuckPo.
And meet my banned site list.
