If you're currently in one of our markets, chances are you already know something about us. If we haven't been introduced until now, here's what we'd like you to know:

Journal Broadcast Group, America's best local broadcast company, owns and operates television and radio stations in markets across the country. We describe our culture in three words: "built to grow." We live and work in growing communities. We grow our operations to become broadcast leaders in those communities. We are drawn to hire and employ those who are looking to grow, both personally and professionally. And we strive to grow our bottom line - to do our part in providing a return on investment for our shareholders.

Superior leadership is a key component of the growth strategy, and by that we don't mean only management. We look for employees who are leaders in life... those who are innovative... who want to make things better... who think for themselves.

Journal Broadcast Group is also a cornerstone of Journal Communications, a diversified media and communications company that has six other operating divisions throughout the country.
