An open call to freelance reporters covering El Paso, Cd. Juárez and Las Cruces news. We are rebooting the El Paso Herald-Post. We are offering $35 to $150 per article that is accepted for publication. There are two processes for submitting paid work articles. The first is you pitch your story idea to us and how much you want for it. If we accept it, we will ask you to write it and submit it for publication. The second option is that the freelance writers who have signed up to write articles for El Paso Herald-Post will be asked to write a news article on a specific topic, for example covering a government meeting. Once you accept the job, we will ask you to write it and submit it. You will be paid as soon as your article is accepted for publication. We are requesting articles of around 500 words and feature articles of between 1,000 and 1,500 words. If you are interested, please let me know by sending me an email to my email address at: [email protected]

We are trying to build the future of journalism. Trust in the news but with modern tools. As we are in the start-up phase, we are also looking for people invested in the future of news who want to own a piece of what a news outlet should be like. If you want to be part of the future of news in El Paso and are willing to trade “sweat equity” for part ownership let me know how you wish to contribute on your email. We need an editor. We need photographers/multimedia creators. We need people who want to offer on-camera news stories for our daily/weekly news reports. We are looking for your vision of what news should be. A little work today will not only give you the opportunity to have a say on the future of news but a piece of it as well.

Let me know today as we are on the fast-track to launch quickly.
