You know I hate to sound defensive, but we're not the only ones who offer internships. You can find unpaid internships at media organizations and many others (just google News and Review internship).

It is a way for someone who would not be qualified for a full-time position to learn and get experience. I've been and unpaid intern and it absolutely helped me.

And to be clear, we do have many full-time positions that are well paid with full benefit packages.

Ben, I don't think that you are sounding defensive at all....more like your setting the standards straight.
