Why Local Sports is dying

Just a thought but...

We see less and less local sports on tv because of 1 of 2 reasons.

1. The news director honestly believes that people sitting at home would rather watch 20 minutes of weather than anything else.

2. Its the sports department's fault for not covering their backyard.

Now I will agree that ESPN has taken a lot of the thunder away from local tv stations trying to cover major sports teams, but their is more to cover in town than the millionaires. I live in a top 50 market, ho… Continue

TV Station Closed Down- I'm Currently Looking for a Reporter or Reporter/Anchor position!! Any advice?

Hello everyone. I must say that I like this website. It offers a nice way to keep in touch with fellow journalists.
I'm sure by now you've read the headline of my blog, so I will give you the "just" of what happened. In May 2007 I was offered and accepted my first on-air job as a News Reporter. After almost 2 months, I was promoted to Anchor/Reporter. I anchored the live 12 p.m. news and also filled-in for the 6 & 10 p.m. news.

One day, however in November 2007...everyone was called in and… Continue

The "Lazy Pkg"

I know there are times that come up when reporters really do have a limited amount of time to turn something around. In other cases whether, its TD's, or lack of knowledge on a subject many reporters will use a SOT package as well.

In most cases though, nine out of 10 times it's because its just the easy thing to do.

These days local news is dying, not just on local news but in newspapers as well. The story telling side of news seems to be a lost art form. A few years ago in a perfect world pe… Continue

Public Broadcast Television

Public Broadcast Television

The non-profit sector of public broadcasting is the ideal outlet for other community organizations to advertise and educate. Today, in an era of VCRs, DVD players, Internet access, and dozens of round-the-clock cable channels, some are wondering where public funding of broadcasting fits. As PBS's ratings have dropped to their lowest levels ever, the station's taxpayer funding continues to surge.

Public broadcasting includes radio, television and other electronic med… Continue

Can YOU help me?

Hello everybody! I'm new to the website and still trying to establish some sort of networking with all of you. Being a broadcast journalism graduate, I'm still very much in the job hunt for my first station. As you know, getting started in this business is very timely and of course who you know! If there are any stations out there that you know of who are looking for reporters, could you please let me know. Also, I understand that everybody is quite busy these days but if you have 4 minutes to k… Continue

So Now I'm a Tile-Setter!

In the realm of home improvement projects, I offer to you SETTING TILE as the Lord of the Underworld.
It is grueling work. It isn't super difficult, if you have the right tools and after a little practice. But it's just friggin hard labor. And that's why it costs SO MUCH to have tile put in your house by a professional. They know you don't want to do it yourself. Plus, they're WAY better at it than us mere mortal home owners are. I'm not old (yet), in decent shape, kind of handy with the fixing… Continue
