AND THE WINNER IS...

Maghan McDowell, who's interning FOR FREE at Marie Claire this winter/spring, is Ed's newest Trust Fund Baby! Tons of talented interns applied, but Ed knew he had the right girl when she described him as "unique and valuable" in her cover letter. Now that's a way to win Ed's heart! Nah really, she's an awesome girl with a heart of gold who wrote a super essay about her dream magazine job. Ed was more than happy to fork over the $1,000 to help fund her unpaid internship in NYC. Many congrats, Maghan!

...that Jossip.com is looking for a few good interns. The insider media and celebrity gossip blog is looking for part-time help from students or just-graduated types (though certainly not a requirement). Though the position is unpaid, it'll offer excellent exposure to media circles -- certainly a leg up for anyone looking to work in publishing, TV, PR, or advertising. Ideal candidates are already eager consumers of all things media (newspapers, magazines, blogs, cable news), interested in behind-the-scenes dealings, and gossip with their friends about the Arthur Sulzbegers and Bonnie Fullers of the world. Interest in celebrity angles is a plus, but don't be a celeb worshipper. Interested applicants should get in touch with Jossip publisher David Hauslaib via email at david@jossip.com (no phone calls). Please include your name, contact information, availability, and a few brief paragraphs about yourself and why you'd be a fit for this position.
