The Desert Sun is looking to hire a couple of reporters for a new weekly it will start soon: The La Quinta Sun. They are looking for fresh reporters who are willing to brave the heat and the competition in this fast-growing community just outside Palm Springs. There are great issues out there: development, immigration, tourism etc. Reporters need to be flexible and interested in writing for the Internet too, since that is a major component of The Desert Sun these days.
