Career Levels


Broadcast Journalism Career ~ Like the idea of reporting important events and being on television at the same time? Then maybe you should try your hand at Broadcast Journalism!

1. High School Newscaster ~ From mystery meat and dirty restrooms to test corruption and the coolest teachers and faculty. You're working mighty hard to let the students know of everything going on around campus. Also, make sure you go about your stories in entertaining ways, because sometimes it's you who wakes the students up for the day.
Wages: §21/hour
Days: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
Work hours: 9.00am ~ 4.00pm

2. College Campus Broadcaster ~ What! A PEEPING TOM ON CAMPUS!!!!! With your journalistic instincts around you'll let no suspicious activity uncovered. Now thanks to you, several students can lay their heads down at night with a higher feeling of security.
Wages: §42/hour
Days: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
Work hours: 9.00am ~ 4.00pm

3. Newscaster Intern ~ You're not just getting coffee and donuts, you actually receive an accurate feel of what the career is like. Your eyes are opened to the toughness, demand, and competiveness of the field, but with your determination, there's nothing that will stop you.
Wages: §58/hour
Days: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
Work hours: 10.00am ~ 4.00pm

4. Weekend Special Reporter ~ The weekend is your favourite time of the week. Yes, it's a bit odd. While the weekend is typically everyone’s' day off, it's your time to shine. Keep working hard and you'll have more than just 6 minutes of air time on two days of the week. Other days of the week are spent gathering the information for your reports.
Wages: §56/hour
Days: Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday
Work hours: 3.00pm ~ 11.00pm

5. Daily Special Reporter ~ Well you must have done a great job with your weekend reports. The higher officials like you, and now you give a special report daily. But that doesn't necessarily mean you'll work all 7 days of the week. Monday - Friday is all you need with re-runs of your reports being played on the weekends.
Wages: §75/hour
Days: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
Work hours: 9.00am ~ 5.00pm

6. Weekend News Host ~ Wow, it seems you have natural talent in what you do. Now you get to host the news on the weekends. Keep working towards the top and moving on in the world of Broadcast Journalism. You never know what will happen next.
Wages: §93/hour
Days: Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday
Work hours: 3.00pm ~ 11.00pm

7. Morning News Co-Host ~Everyone wakes up to your face in the morning. They are excited to see what you have to say. If they really like you they may want you to end their evenings as well. There is a downside, and that is that you will now have to wake up very early to prepare for the show. But that's the least of your worries, in this competitive industry, you'll need to be as charismatic and creative as possible.
Wages: §105/hour
Days: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
Work hours: 2.00am ~ 11.00am

8. Evening News Anchor ~ The city learns most of their information from you at night. You get to sleep in, but that only compensates for the additional late nights you will be having. Make sure you are persevering, today is never a day to give up.
Wages: §144/hour
Days: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
Work hours: 2.00pm ~ 11.00pm

9. National News Anchor ~ Hard work is extremely beneficial. Look at how far you've come. Once on closed circuit school television, you've made it to the national television waves. Now is probably the most competitive level of the broadcast journalism industry, but it's nothing you can't handle.
Wages: §240/hour
Days: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
Work hours: 1.00pm ~ 11.00pm

10. News Show Host ~ Like Larry King and Barbara Walters, you now have your own news show. It's greatly paying and highly rewarding. It may not have been the easiest, but you have no regrets about the work you've done. There's definitely a lot of things to be proud of. Oh yeah, and remember that determination mentioned in the beginning of this career, it has finally paid off. Welcome to the top of Broadcast Journalism.

Technical Stuff:

This career was made with patch 1.36 and should work with all lower patches. It requires only the base game to run and should work with any combination of expansion and stuff packs. It works in my game but if you have problems, let me know :)
