#LAist needs a highly experienced editor who can juggle multiplatform needs to run our daily news operation. This is not an assignment editor job; it is a Managing Editor level opening for a journalist with the news chops to work in a daily deadline environment and the management experience to create a distinctive coverage plan. In other words, we want someone who can help set us apart from the #LA #media pack.
