CMP students will get first choice, and a discount, for our New York Tabloid Internship scheme.
The
two-month virtual internship with leading New York news agency
Manhattan News to fast-track young journalists to jobs on the national
papers.
The scheme gives budding tabloid journalists the chance to work with award-winning Manhattan News editor Julian Brouwer.
Successful applicants will get real-life experience on all aspects of hard-edge, tabloid news journalism.
If
they excel, they could find their first job is on a UK tabloid
newspaper.
Julian Brouwer has worked on some of the world’s biggest stories,
including the death of Princess Diana and the World Trade Center
attacks.
He left the London tabloids to pursue an
exciting career in America. His first big journalistic assignment was
covering the death of JFK Junior, the man Americans lovingly dubbed
America’s Prince.
Julian's award-winning column, This
is America, appeared in the Daily Express five days a week and looked at
the lighter side of life across the Pond.
He said: 'I've been fortunate to get some great breaks in journalism and want to give other people the same chance.
'My
agency is at the sharp end, following up major news stories and selling
them to the tabloids. The scheme will give successful applicants an
amazing opportunity to break into the exciting and lucrative world of
tabloid journalism.'
He added: 'This is a great
opportunity for a self-starter to skip the long and arduous route of
local newspapers, and advance straight to the tabloids.'
Our current students will get priority applications, and a 15% discount on the course fee.
CMP
director Cleland Thom added: 'I wish I'd had an opportunity like this
when I started out. It will shape people's careers and fast-track them
through to the national papers.'
