Re: 25-66’s lack of Coronavirus response plan

You obviously have never worked at 25-66... because managers never work on holidays, on big events, on weekends when we have major programming, etc. They are the last ones in to work, first to leave. I don’t see the accountant in chief to leave home and his family to spend time with the “troops.” W...

Re: 25-66’s lack of Coronavirus response plan

Because when managers knowingly have a public health emergency it is their responsibility (and the employee’s responsibility too) to find ways to protect the staff with reasonable measures. As far as Beer’s proclamation that everything I suggest is “pie in the sky”... you might want to check with o...

Re: 25-66’s lack of Coronavirus response plan

For starts... I’d start with limiting guests into the station. We’re still bringing in people for interviews. We need to stop forcing anchors and reporters to do public appearances for a period of time. Our jobs are informing the public, not school talks or MCing events. I’d have all non-essential ...

Re: 25-66’s lack of Coronavirus response plan

The media isn’t shutting down schools. The media isn’t suspending sports play. The media isn’t selling off stocks prompting wild swings in the stock markets. The media isn’t instituting a travel ban. The media isn’t running out to the stores to buy up all the toilet paper — which I can’t believe is...

Not my concern.
And I’m sure it not yours either.

Re: 25-66’s lack of Coronavirus response plan

You didn’t ask me a question, Granpappy. You made a lot of baseless claims and outright lies. You’re a joke. (Not a good one... but more like a bad dad joke that the accountant in chief likes to tell to the kiddos thinking that’s he’s hip and cool). Just go to the White Horse (two words) and ask yo...

Granpappy: For sh*t and giggles sake, the newsroom would like to know who you think I am. Put a name out there so we can see how far off base you are.

Re: Who proofreads this crap?

Nope I’m blaming 25-66 managers who had years to put in oversight and accountability... and still have done nothing. And I blame 25-66’s Chief Apologist. Without the enablers and yes men/women, changes to improve station culture and morale would greatly improve. And maybe, just maybe, employees wou...

I really thought Lovin was the most despised person on the Buzzboard... constantly detailing threads with their off-topic vendettas. It now appears Lovin has some competition!
So, you won't answer the question?

Re: Who proofreads this crap?

Nope. I’m doing just fine pushing your buttons as being the voice of reason and sanity. But the topic you should be addressing is the broken system that allows easily catchable mistakes from being put on 25-66’s website and social media pages. Still nothin’ from my Granpappy on the topic at hand......

Re: 25-66’s lack of Coronavirus response plan

There’s nothing that says I can’t advocate for a higher wage and better working conditions. People do it all the time. Unions do it all the time. Maybe it’s time to bring them back and shake things up at the ole 25-66. Maybe the threat of unions would make the hire ups rethink the accountant in chi...

I’ve got lots of time to call out your BS. Instead of focusing your ire at me, maybe actually stick to the topic at hand which is protecting journalists from the Coronavirus.
