Sports Anchor/MMJ – KOLN/KSNB, Lincoln

Do you believe sports are about more than just a final score? (Because let’s be real—anyone can check an app for that.) We’re looking for a Weeknight Sports Storyteller who wants to do more than just read highlights. We want someone who can find the heart, the hustle, and the human stories that connect Grand Island, Hastings, and Kearney. If you’re a digital native who lives for the “why” behind the game and wants to build a brand across social, streaming, and broadcast, then Local4 is your playground.

Applications close April 30, 2026

If you feel you’re qualified and want to work with a great group of people, apply now!

Duties/Responsibilities include, but are not limited to: What You’ll Do:
  • Own the stream: Develop and host regular streaming-first content, from weekly coaches’ shows to deep-dive athlete profiles that live on our OTT and digital platforms.
  • Uncover the “why”: Go beyond the box score to find the unique, powerful stories of athletes and fans that make Central Nebraska sports a community staple.
  • Anchor with energy: Deliver high-energy, authentic sports segments during our weeknight newscasts that feel like a conversation, not a lecture.
  • Dominate social platforms: Create platform-specific content (TikTok, Reels, etc.) that engages local fans and families where they actually spend their time.
  • Shoot & edit with style: Use your eye for visual storytelling to capture impactful video and craft sharp, fast-paced packages that pop on every screen.
  • Build your brand: Embed yourself in the local sports scene, building the relationships that lead to exclusive stories and make you a “must-follow” for Central Nebraska fans.
  • Innovate the game: Help us figure out how local sports fans use digital/social platforms and make the Local4 brand the ultimate destination for sports families.
Qualifications/Requirements: What You Bring:
  • A digital-first brain that thinks in “content” rather than just “TV segments.”
  • Killer storytelling skills and a portfolio that proves you can make an audience feel something.
  • The hustle to shoot, edit, and produce your own work while maintaining a high creative bar.
  • A genuine curiosity about people and the ability to make athletes and coaches feel comfortable opening up.
  • On-camera presence that is authentic, conversational, and—most importantly—you.
  • The ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment where “weeknight” means being where the action is.
  • A collaborative spirit and a “let’s try it” attitude toward new digital and streaming ideas
