    Shitty Craigslist media internship offer of the day: this magazine is seeking "3 to 5 qualified [UNPAID] interns for a two-week project with the option of staying on for the full summer internship." Oh okay. The project? "Our goal is to create a magazine from scratch, with the first edition complete in a 10 day window." Haha! Related, I'm seeking 3-5 unpaid interns for a project building an extra room on my apartment. From scratch!
