The market info section is woefully out of date. Some of is at least three years old and is a disservice to any newbie who might actually use it for planning purposes. Maybe the last update could be dated so at least the reader would know how realiable the data is. Just a thought.

I covered this jerk many times, but this is even over the top for him. http://cbs4denver.com/video/?id=38064@kcnc.dayport.com It cues up to the raw. The full story will follow after that.

I'm looking for some general information about the Orlando stations. What are the newsrooms like? Management? Producers? News product? Ratings? Anthing you can tell me would be greatly appreciated.

Long time no hear. The silence is deafening. How about an update on your KRON/WKRN projects? A reasonable amount of time has passed for you to make an educated assessment of the new VJ newsrooms. We eagerly await your critique. Is the VJ future as bright as you once thought?

I can't take it anymore. It is enough to make me scream at the top of my lungs. The word is lose NOT loose. They are not interchangeable. AAAAAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHH It isn't just one person, it is many here, there and everywhere that make this mistake. I apologize to the last person who made...

I started a new thread for this because it was starting to clutter up the other discussion. If you are going to make a film about WWII, you make sure the uniforms are authentic, the terrain is authentic, the tactics are authentic, etc... BWP is a story about student filmakers that disappear...

This is an offshoot of another thread. Do you bring or buy your lunch out? I used to always buy out. Never, ever brought leftovers or a sandwich. It was easier to just grab something along the way. Then I started to eat a lot healthier. That happens when your body gets older and you want to...

A shout out to all our Canadian buds out there on b-roll. Have a happy AND safe Boxing Day. So what is this holiday all about? And extra day of presents or what?
