Re: Another leaving WXYZ
When I was hired, Grace Gillcrest was in on my interview process and in fact for every TV station I've worked for I met the GM before I was hired.

Re: Bally Sports May Lose TV Rights to MLB Next Week
Starting April 1st, TV20 wil begin simulcasting some of Bally's Red Wings and Piston games. Looks like some kind of experiment with OTA and streaming possibly leaving the cable channel behind in the near future. No word if there are plans to do the same with Tigers games. Do not know how or if CW pr...

Re: Broadcasting burnout
I think getting rid of ridiculous non-competes and liquidated damage clauses for reporters and producers would go far. Even if the FTC forbids these in April it will be challenged in the courts by the companies that hate free enterprise when it comes to the labor market.

What's funny is that the nuts from both sides were accusing him of voting for the other guy.

Re: CBS Detroit Job Cuts
I would have thought CBS would have given 62 all of 2024 to make or break before making cutbacks, anyway corporate mandated layoffs are always expedite and are never well thought out. Just cut the easiest people to cut and deal with the fall out later.

Everyone brings a different skill set to the job, some do social media better than others.

Re: Local 4 Photographer Contract
I think Sarah Michals at Ch 7 does it the right way. She will work with a photographer to shoot interviews and broll, then while the photog is editing her on air packages, she will take those elements and put together some tictoks or instagram posts that promote the story and or give it a wider reach.

Multi Media Journalist, more precisely reporters, who shoot and edit their own stories for either air or online content. They dominate small market TV Newsrooms.

Re: How many different songs does WCSX play?
The best way to measure that is to put real time meters in cars. If one were put in my car they would occasionally see my toggle between all of my presets to land on the best song option, then it might notice me forgetting to surf when a spot does come on until a spot annoys me out of complacency. I...

Re: Local 4 Photographer Contract
Allowing a few MMJs and the station finding, hiring and keeping qualified and competent people to do that job is another thing.

Re: Local 4 Photographer Contract
If anybody cares, the highlights from the contract are, 3 years with raises of 5%, 3% and 3%, 2 more positions added, allows for MMJs but limits the number and what they can and can't do, no layoffs of union photogs if MMJs are employed and eliminates the option for 10 hour shifts 4 days a week. Thi...

Re: Local 4 Photographer Contract
I would say that the company would not renew the contract when it expires and if it was really bad they would either pay off the contract, use what ever out is available to them within the contract or ruthlessly trump some offense up to justify the termination and risk the inevitable lawsuit. Lions ...

Re: Local 4 Photographer Contract
Yeah no, it would take legitimate grounds for dismissal, like sexual harassment or theft.
