What does a Journalist do?
A journalist researches and verifies information, conducts interviews with sources, and produces accurate, timely news stories for print, digital, broadcast, or wire publication. Day-to-day work involves monitoring beats (such as chemicals policy, equity markets, defence, or celebrity news), cultivating source relationships, filing copy to deadline, and, depending on the role, gathering data, shooting footage, or presenting on air. Specialist reporters combine deep subject-matter knowledge with storytelling craft; data reporters additionally build and analyse datasets to surface stories that traditional reporting would miss.
Key responsibilities
- Research, verify, and write original news stories to deadline
- Develop and maintain a network of on-beat sources and contacts
- Conduct interviews with subjects, experts, and officials
- Monitor industry developments, data releases, and public records for story leads
- Collaborate with editors, producers, and visual teams on story presentation
- Analyse datasets or market data to identify and support data-driven stories
