FOCUS-GLOBAL.CO.CC-January 19, 2011 (WLS) -- Chicago's #1 television station is looking for an entertainment/talk show booker to join a small team of hard working, well-connected creatives who bring a ton of energy and smarts to the party.

Major contacts mandatory. Must have immediate access to celebrity publicists, city government leaders, Chicago venues, hotels, restaurants, clubs, Internet sites, blogs, radio & TV personalities and print publication columnists and more. Fast-track knowledge of what's going on in and around Chicago and what's in the pipeline are critical to the position. Tapping into the "latest" in all things Chicago should be part of this person's DNA.

This is not a newscast, but a new LIVE, one hour morning "must" for Chicagoans, across the three screens (TV, Internet, Smart-Phones) utilizing Skype & other digital messaging tools and delivery systems, including social networking. A studio-based show with a LIVE audience.

Two or more years of experience working as a booker or in a production/programming position with related skill set. A booker who thrives on being "in the know" and knows how to get the good "gets" is who we're looking for--and someone who brings attitude and edge to the mix. Please rush your resume to:

ABC 7 Morning Show, P.O. Box 64389, Chicago, Illinois 60664. No phone calls please.
