MJ Bear ONA digital journalism fellowships: Applications open
This week the Online News Association began accepting applications for the 2012 MJ Bear Fellowships—which offer three young digital journalists mentoring and connections to support their efforts and vision…
Eligible for these fellowships are “up-and-coming early-career journalists inside or outside the newsroom who are just beginning to make their voices heard in the industry and working to expand the boundaries of digital news.”
Two fellowships are for North American journalists; one for a journalist from elsewhere around the globe. Open to any working digital journalist age 23-30 (as of Sept. 21, 2012), fluent in English, excluding full-time students.
The fellowship includes:
- Assignment of a personal ONA mentor for six months.
- Registration, travel and accommodations for the 2012 Online News Association Conference.
- Recognition at the ONA12 conference
- Membership in ONA, with three years’ dues paid in full.
