Want to cover the Giants for a while?
You might get the chance:
We’re thrilled to announce an exciting new initiative being brought to you by CBSSports.com and BleacherReport.com. The CBSSports.com NFL Correspondent Network is a unique opportunity whereby aspiring sports journalists will be given the opportunity to provide in-depth coverage of NFL teams as fully credentialed members of the press corps.
CBSSports.com and Bleacher Report will select one writer to follow each of the NFL’s 32 teams from the club’s training camp and practices through their regular season and playoff games. The reporters covering the AFC and NFC Champions will also be credentialed to cover Super Bowl XLIV for CBSSports.com and BleacherReport.com.
Candidates will be evaluated on the basis of written work submitted during the evaluation period, as well as education and prior journalism experience. The program is open to any qualified applicant, including the large and dedicated communities of bloggers and writers at CBSSports.com and BleacherReport.com.
This blending of traditional journalism with sports citizen reporting is totally unprecedented—especially on this scale. The combination of CBSSports.com’s impeccable editorial standards and deep ties to the NFL with Bleacher Report’s rich and prolific network of writing talent will result in unparalleled live coverage of NFL teams on a local level.
