Despite Layoffs, Scripps Creates Another Corporate Position
/
FTVLive has been telling you how Scripps has been laying off TV talent at many of their stations.
But, while Scripps is swinging the blade at the TV stations, up in the cushy corporate offices, they are adding to the executive fat.
Now Scripps has created another position and hired another suit to fill the job. The new job is vice president, employment and labor law, and chief diversity officer.
They filled that spot with Danyelle S.T. Wright (pictured) and we're sure as a VP, she is likely getting a fairly fat paycheck.
The question has to be, why is Scripps laying off people that the viewers see and watch and then hiring suits in the corporate offices?
As a TV manager, I was always told you always spend money where the viewers can see it.
Scripps seems to be doing the complete opposite.
