KCWE TV’s Post

Random, but I find it interesting there are so many news directors jobs open in addition to producer openings. What is going on in these newsrooms? I mean, I know why I left TV News in 2017, but why is everyone else leaving and where are y'all going???? #TVNews #Broadcasting #Producers #NewsDirectors

I left the ND chair a little more than a year ago. I truly miss the teamwork and close relationships, but I do not miss what the job had become for me. I can only speak for myself, but the 24/7 nature of the business didn’t drive me out, it was the growing apathy of the people signing the checks. We saw the great resignation coming, as Covid was as wrapping up. People have always left the business for quality of life reasons, but a crush of news people flooded the exits and it hasn’t slowed down since. The reasons are simple, almost everyone in the building is overworked, underpaid and is dealing with a lack of support from the very top. In my case, any conversations about newsroom burnout and frustration, were brushed off and I was told to order some pizza for the “team”. At my last station, we dealt with a mass shooting, a mayor charged with crimes and forced to resign, a military helicopter crash with multiple fatalities, rioting and looting in the streets after a peace march got out of control and a police custody death and city coverup, that led to weeks of protests and unrest. This was all while we were down multiple staff position and trying to navigate the new world of gathering news during Covid. During this time you would hope for help and guidance, maybe even a little appreciation for the hard working people in the trenches. Instead, it was always about doing more with less. Ratings are up, add newscasts. Can we add a few more people to the “team”? No - times are tough because of Covid. How about raises? Yep - 1% at the end of the year 😉 Ultimately, I made a decision that was best for myself and my family. The best part of not being a News Director anymore, I don’t have to look people in the eyes and tell them that signing a two year contract for about $15 an hour is a good idea!!! The good news is that this is a fixable problem. News is too important to let it continue to die off, but it has to start with the people signing the checks!
