Ms. Murray,

As a self-described news junkie myself, I'm intrigued by the position, because having worked on dailies in the past, I miss the thrill of working on tight deadlines and always coming through. What's the biggest challenge associated with the position, because I've got a skill set that matches up pretty closely with the position and I'd like to know a little more before I make a final decision about applying myself.
