Oh my. Looky here! We’ve found the Holy Grail for the metropolitan blogging world: a parttime blogging position that will be PAID. Not with cigarettes, booze or minimal beatings — but with actual money! And you don’t even have to talk about politics. Read now; you can thank us later.

Elizabeth Spiers, the newly appointed head honcho over at mediabistro.com (a site dedicated to resources for everything, anything, and anyone media-related) is looking for a D.C.-focused media blogger:

I need a blogger (part-time, paid) who’s interested in DC media. Not DC politics, mind you. DC media. (And yes, I realize that there’s some overlap.)

Applicants don’t have to be based in DC, but need to be able to demonstrate prior interest in media if they’re not. That said, being based in DC is clearly a major advantage.

Really, you should shower us with candy and flowers for telling you all about this instead of evilly hording it to ourselves, cackling as we write our cover letter and spruce up our blog. And if you get the job, let us know what the site’ll be like, what you’ll be writing about — and what it feels like to be a paid blogger. We blog for free because we love it (and because it fills that empty void in our attention-starved hearts), but we’ll still be jealous of the guy or gal who ends up with the spot.

Other media pundits in the area (though they don’t all blog) include the Post’s Howie Kurtz and Dan Froomkin; The Department of Media, written by the City Paper’s editor Erik Wemple; and the folks over at DCRTV, a site that reports on local radio and TV happenings.
