Allen Media Broadcasting's KDRV-TV in Medford, Oregon is looking for an experienced journalist to anchor evening newscasts and produce Monday-Friday.
KDRV-TV has an immediate opening for an Anchor/Producer
We are looking for a skilled content creator and presenter with excellent news judgment and strong writing skills for multiple platforms. Our anchors are newsroom leaders. If you’re energized at the thought of helping to mentor and teach producers and reporters, then this is a great opportunity! A reel that demonstrates your ability to connect with viewers while delivering both scheduled and breaking news in the studio and from the field is important. A college degree in journalism or a related field is required.
KDRV is the market leader in Southern Oregon and has been #1 in local news for more than 25 years. We produce 36 hours of local television news per week and coverage on digital and social throughout the day.

If you still need an occasional big city fix, then Portland and San Francisco are just a quick direct flight or a few hours’ drive away.
We offer great benefits including medical, vision, dental and life insurance, 401(k), and a generous PTO plan (vacation, sick, holidays).
