Re: The Comma's "bias" anchor?

All good points. I wish our managers did a better job on background checks.

The Comma's "bias" anchor?

Someone in the newsroom found this article about Christina. Seems like management didn't check her background.

Doesn't make us look good.

Re: Lauren Scafidi is leaving

She’s left the station, and her bio is STILL on the website? Why are we so slow with taking her off the website.

Re: NABET and The Comma

The NABET discussion was brought up by one of our photographers. He feels like the management needs to treat us better.

NABET and The Comma

The word around our newsroom today is that people want to form a union at the station. Four different people have reached out to a NABET rep for help. Sounds like JT is very concerned.

Re: Lauren Scafidi is leaving

Danielle King was fired, so that’s not an option.

We have no one to replace Lauren.

Re: Lauren Scafidi is leaving

She did take a lot of vacation time, but our boss had no choice. He wanted to keep her, so he allowed it. Apparently it didn’t work.

Lauren Scafidi is leaving

She's leaving in two weeks, People in the newsroom tell me her last day is September 1st. They're desperately looking for a replacement.

Re: 9&10 Hires New Anchor

Are you sure about that? Eric Lloyd is still listed as a reporter on their website. He left over two weeks ago per his twitter page.

"You need to be nice to one another"

This is almost comical, but here you go. So apparently the HR Director at Vine and 10 Snooze recently sent out an email to the entire company asking everyone "to be nice to one another". This comes after the head of Lake Effect Digital got into a heated argument with another employee, so loud client...

Re: Replacement for Kevin Essebaggers announced

Some interesting news from Heritage House. Word is that Kurt Wilson started on Monday..and quit on Wednesday. Apparently, it wasn't the right fit for Mr. Wilson. Sent a note to the staff, and walked out the door. Just another example of the toxic culture inside 9&10 News. Absolutely no leadership!! ...

Re: Sid Simone...where did she go?

Good point. In a time where broadcast news is losing viewers all the time because of trust and lack of transparency, it would go a long way to answer a question about talent.

Sid Simone...where did she go?

There is an ABP out for Sid Simone? 9&10 News is telling us she's out sick, but it's been almost a month. I called and asked, but got sent to the News Director's voicemail. Looks like they're hiding something. Time to be transparent 9&10.

Replacement for Kevin Essebaggers announced

The word from inside Heritage House is a new anchor has been hired to replace Kevin Essebaggers. Kurt Wilson will be arriving soon to take over. My father-in-law was surprised they didn't promote David Lyden to the role?
