Summer Fellowship in Journalism & Strategic Communications
08 June 2009
Washington DC, United States (from 08:00 to 17:00)
The Israel Project
The Israel Project (TIP) Media Fellowship is open to undergraduate and graduate students as well as recent college or graduate school alumni who are starting their careers in journalism or strategic communications/Israel advocacy (please note that undergraduate students must have completed at least three years of college/university to be eligible for consideration). TIP teaches techniques designed to increase accurate and fair coverage of Israel and Jews in the American and global news media.
Throughout the summer, Fellows meet with top-level journalists, Middle East analysts and strategic communications professionals. They also put their knowledge to use in writing assignments, many of which are published during the fellowship; plan and staff TIP press conferences and briefings; and undertake in-depth research projects. Additionally, Fellows become skilled at building relationships with journalists, providing them key information and researching complex topics.
TIP’s Media Fellows learn directly from the research conducted by our top team including TIP Founder Jennifer Laszlo Mizrahi and world-renowned pollsters Frank Luntz, Ph.D., Stan Greenberg, Ph.D. and Neil Newhouse.
