No. 10 Best TV Station to Work At
/Coming in at No. 10 on the list, we headed to Washington, DC and find NBC O&O WRC.
WRC is the second-oldest commercially licensed television station in Washington, but it is No. 1 when it comes to ratings.
An interesting note, The second presidential debate between candidates John F. Kennedy and Richard M. Nixon was broadcast from the station's studios on October 7, 1960.
The station has a rich history in DC and is a great place to work. Covering the news in the Nation’s Capital is always exciting, with a good mix of politics and other “real” news.
If you want to work in DC local news, your choices are WJLA owned by Sinclair, WUSA owned by Tegna and WTTG owned by Fox. So, if DC is on your radar, WRC is your best choice by miles.
One last interesting footnote about WRC. The earliest color videotape in existence is a recording of the dedication of NBC/WRC's Washington studios on May 22, 1958. As Dwight D. Eisenhower spoke at the event, introduced by then NBC President Robert W. Sarnoff, it was also the first time a president had been videotaped in color.
Check back next hour to see which station comes in at No. 9 on our list.
