Reporters also might do some text translation, media monitoring and could be asked to crunch data for analysis that might lead to stories. You have:
Accuracy, speed, excellent news judgement and a close eye for detail are essential. Excellent written English and near-native proficiency in one or more additional European languages are essential, with a strong preference for German and/or French. Business Area: NEWS/WSJ
