As a Producer, you will craft compelling daily news segments rooted in Catholic teaching, collaborate with editorial and production teams, and ensure our broadcast meets the highest journalistic and visual standards. Your work directly supports EWTN’s mission of bringing faithful, accurate, and relevant news to millions.

What you will do

In this role, you will be responsible for producing high-quality daily news segments that reflect national and international events through a Catholic lens. You will write and edit scripts under tight deadlines, conduct thorough research on guests and topics, and prepare thoughtful discussion questions for the Anchor and Executive Producer. You will pitch original story ideas that align with current affairs and EWTN’s mission, select video, sound, graphics, and still images for the broadcast, and collaborate closely with pre- and post-production teams to ensure each newscast is both editorially sound and visually engaging.

You will also support other English and Spanish news programs produced in the D.C. studios and in the field, and assist in Spanish language major events coverage, such as the Holy Father’s travel to Latin America.
