On-line Managing Editor responsibile for organizing online editorial content, building web pages and identifying web links. On-line Producer to build web pages, organize and edit previously published material, create new content to be delivered online, and seek out web links. Experience in news research and computer-assisted reporting techniques would be valuable. Database/Unix Analyst Programmer to design databases for web publishing.
