God I'd hate to be a TV news director. One day you're the white knight riding in, and the next you're out with the trash and you didn't even unpack. You're a gypsy, Kansas City to Cleveland to Jacksonville to Portland, you think they're all the same, it's like being a radio jock in the 70's. You're at the mercy of uncontrollable, inherited factors but you're expected to work instant magic. You have to smile and rubber-stamp the sulfurous will of devious consultants who bow to every trivial wind with a knife behind their back, and someday, inevitably, you become one yourself. Yuck. Not for me.
