Felonious Florida, a serial podcast produced by the South Florida Sun Sentinel and distributed by Wonder/Libsyn is seeking a talented new audio journalist to research, reporter, conduct interviews and write scripts for a new 6-episode season to release this fall or early winter. The story we are telling isn't the typical true-crime murder story -- it's one of deep intrigue with a very Florida twist. We need somebody who is experienced and skilled at obtaining and analyzing court cases, discovering and interviewing recorded "characters," and writing a script that balances to bizarreness of the story with responsible, sensitive journalism practices.
