[Cwgrad-announcements] Atlantic Media fellowship -- DC fellowship

[Vanessa Hua]

Washington, D.C. - Atlantic Media Company announces today a new
Fellowship program aimed at discovering and fostering exceptional and
aspiring writers, editors, designers, web production and IT experts, and
other online media talents.



Traditionally known for its respected print titles - including The
Atlantic, National Journal, and Government Executive - Atlantic Media
will concentrate on new websites and online features in the Fellowship's
inaugural year.  This growth builds on Atlantic Media's significant
advances in the digital arena, including the upcoming relaunch of
NationalJournal.com,  the March launch of NextGov.com, the recent
re-design of TheAtlantic.com, and a host of other focused online
expansion efforts.



Through this new paid fellowship program, established by the company's
Chairman David G. Bradley, Atlantic Media will welcome 5 to 10 emerging
media talents from fall 2008 through spring 2009. Fellows will spend the
intensive nine-month appointment conceiving of new web concepts,
developing their structure, design and voice, and writing and editing
the daily content once sites are launched.



Fellows will be current students in or recent graduates of college or
graduate school programs and should represent a dynamic and creative
edge, be it in writing excellence, aptitude in web design, or market
intuition.



Deadline for submission is May 8, 2008.  Semi-finalists will spend a
weekend competing for consideration, with Atlantic Media Fellows
announced on June 6, 2008.  The Fellowship will begin in September 2008
and continue through May 2009.
