More layoffs

How much more can we handle?
My patience with this economy and this business is certainly waining.

Change the time, things are way different


Oh how things are different when it's late at night. I've been working on the 11 this week...and I love it :-) It's so quiet in the newsroom. Wish it could be like this all the time.

R.I.P. First at 4


First at 4 is no more.
Wednesday July 1 was the final show.
We started this groundbreaking show on June 9th, 2008. I was lucky enough to be named the producer of the show. It launched in our downtown studio on Broad & High and was a full hour long show. At the beginning we were completely swamped...with ideas and things we really wanted to do. Of course we finally found our groove, and I think Ellie and I certainly had things the way we wanted them after only a few weeks time. It was always hard to come up with segments for the show, since we didn't really have that much help, but that was the fun part of it actually! I loved how much creative control I had over the show, which is something every producer always wants (but sometimes doesn't get)
I'm very proud of the show we put together, and that it lasted as long as it did. Thanks to it being launched...I was able to leave the vampire world that is the morning show and finally work during the day!!!
Thanks to everyone who ever watched, and certainly those who ever sent us their answer to the question of the day! We really appreciated all the support. Maybe someday we'll be able to bring it back.
