WSLS–TV

WSLS-TV, the Graham Media Group station in Roanoke, VA, has been a cornerstone of the Roanoke community since its establishment in 1952 as the region’s first television station. Now, we’re looking to reinvent local broadcast news. As part of an incubator program, we’re hiring three RFA Corps Members to develop local news videos each day, mainly delivered on social media to start. We will analyze daily video experiments, discovering the preferences of our target audience: people in their 30s and 40s who care about their community but don’t connect to existing local news brands. What we learn will help transform WSLS—and the industry.
