It’s election time. The airwaves are a buzz with politics. Who will win? Who do they represent? Who
cares?

Vibewire Youth Media Inc is partnering with a major media organisation to be at the forefront of this Federal Election finding fresh, exciting and diverse perspectives from Australia’s young people. This has yet to be released and we are currently recruiting young video reporters for the project which will be launched in July.

ElectionWIRE, will be a national repository of news, views and opinions.

The site will be a space where user-generated content will meet incisive, hard-hitting journalism. Whether it is youth unemployment, immigration, the ETS, homelessness or health, the ElectionWIRE reporters will be on the ground asking tough questions and getting unpredictable answers. They will be guided by their peers to find the stories that haven’t been told in a new, bold and unexpected style.

The teams, comprised of a journalist and a multimedia producer, will be stationed all around
Australia. They will be trained, supported and guided by a senior editorial team, ensuring the delivery
of quality journalism.

We are currently recruiting the reporters and looking for representation from Western Australia, South Australia and Tasmania.

Please circulate this through your networks.
