  1. Some stations might call them associate producers or assistant producers, but, yeah, you won't find much writing help outside the top ten markets. A lot of the extra jobs were dumped on producers over the years as TV groups cut the headcounts.

    Wow. From the Big Apple to the Big "D".

    Interesting move here but why would she leave 'PIX for 'TVT?

     

    She left WPIX-TV several months ago, so I don't think Dallas was specifically on her mind at the time. She probably just needed a break, or maybe didn't get a fair contract offer from Nexstar.

  3. Anecdotal, but it always seems like the floodgates open at a station when a couple of people leave. No one wants to be left to do the work of five or six people.

  4. Given how much news stations do now, it would be a lot easier on the schedule to open the door to vacations at almost any time of year, so that you don't end up with too many people cramming vacations into the same weeks.

     

    In exchange, I would black out important events that you know are coming. For everyone, that might be high-viewership periods like the time around the Super Bowl or the Academy Awards. For us, that might be the week of the Big 12 basketball tournament, or in 2023, the NFL draft, or the week of an election.
