Fight STL (details here) is under development, but we are staffing for what I anticipate will be a 4th quarter launch.

If you live in the St. Louis area and are interested in a paid, part-time journalism position, please contact me at ron@FightSTL.com.  At this point I am assessing interest, so there's no need to provide personal information.

Current positions and description listed below. Please keep this thread bumped.  Thanks in advance!

Staff Writer - The most qualified candidate will be proficient in the following:

  • building contacts to maintain a steady flow of news, (eg promoters, the local legislatures, fighters)
  • interviewing people under a range of very different circumstances - including, but not limited to fight schools located in unsafe areas, fight events in the St. Louis or surrounding area, professional and amateur boxing, professional (in IL) and amateur MMA
  • reporting on up-coming events of interest to the community
  • attending press conferences
  • possibly attending local and council meetings and magistrates' court proceedings as they pertain to MMA's legalization
  • recording interviews and meetings using telephone in-line or hand-held recording equipment
  • producing final copy at deadline in accord with your agreed upon output (eg, 2 articles per week, etc.)
  • writing 'fillers' or entertaining editorials

    I grew up in STL so I support this. MMA has been slow to develop there (from what I've seen) until pretty recently.
