Where would a columnist for Rolling Stone Magazine work? At the office or on a laptop from anywhere?

Answer 1

Depends on whether you're in-house or free lance contributor. If they hire you full time, chances are you will work out of the office. If you just contribute an occasional column, then you can work where ever you want to.

Answer 2

I don't know what "columnists" Rolling Stone has. I don't recall any off the top of my head.

Most writers rarely stay in the office. There's not much news there; it's out on the streets. They can send news into the office via computer. One time I visited the Washington Post offices, and a worker said, "Anyone you've heard of isn't in the building."

As an another example, George Will writes a syndicated newspaper column and a piece for Newsweek every other week. He has an office in a separate location than his house, and goes to work each day. He has an assistant, usually an intern as I recall, for help.

Answer 3

Many magazine and even newspaper columnists work out of the office these days. If you are talking about staff writers/reporters, rather than a columnist, most of them work in-house if they are on the staff and not freelancers.

Answer 4

Has someone been watching Almost Famous?
