Pros

None I can think of.

Cons

Not a good reputation with freelance workers and writers, particularly those on the creative/consultancy side. Mining for ideas and then ghosting - avoid.

Pros

Tons of opportunities to chase stories and hone reporting skills. Interns are given a lot of responsibility and assumed to have a high competence level. Journalists in DC office are excellent and great mentors.

Cons

Some administrative work, but that's to be expected. Internships are not extended beyond their one semester term
