    What the F*#k is going on!!!

    I have to vent!! I was sent to NYC to cover Tom Brady and the hearing on his suspension from the NFL. Sent there the day before to do a few lives to preview what's coming up.

    What's your take.....

    So this was sent to me by a colleague at my old station. I left TV news quite a few years ago but still keep in touch with some of the old gang. Just a little back ground, this station was an O&O in a top 20 market. An NPPA shop with great photographers and reporters, number 1 in the market...

    Can't do it without the help of the competition.

    To me this is just crazy but maybe I am just getting old. I am at the Little League World Series in Williamsport working for a Cable sports channel. I have been here for just over a week and have come to know some of the media here. I met these 2 one man band guys working for 2 competing...

    NPPA Survey

    This is not a thread to bash the NPPA, (although I have been known to start bashing a NPPA thread whenever I see one). I am posting this to anyone who received this by email.

    Hard to believe......

    how far as an industry we have fallen. I have to rant. I am covering the AFC Championship in Denver. I was appalled at some of the things I saw. Example ; a photog ( I use that title loosely) for a New England station lense fell off his camera and asked if " anyone knew how to put this back on"...

    Station Vehicle

    How many of you take home a station vehicle? If so do you fill out some sort of form to be taxed on by the government. So a friend of mine called me this weekend asking that question. The 15 years I spent in local news I took a vehicle home and no I never was taxed or filled out a form. He...
