Our Culture

Why Scripps

What binds us together at Scripps, more than anything, is our commitment to public service; our commitment to play an active role in the improvement of our local communities. For most of us, that sense of mission is why we're here.

At Scripps, we're looking for people who are interesting and interested. Our employees are curious and inquisitive — and have a variety of interests outside of their careers. These characteristics are fundamental to our intense focus in serving the community and driving the company's success.

One employee described Scripps as a "collegial atmosphere" — meaning that employees contribute and express ideas in an open, healthy, and respectful manner. Employees may agree to disagree on a matter, yet still know their thoughts and contributions are valued. Scripps is a company where openness, teamwork, and synergy are valued.

Because we are stewards of information and understand the value and responsibilities of the press to serve as the watchdog for our communities, we hold ethical decision-making in high regard. We trust our employees to make the right decisions for their viewers and readers, and for the company.
