The Inbox...
FTVLive features comments from TV newsies that email us in a segment that we call The Inbox (our creative services team worked for days on that title).
The latest email is from a TV newsie that thinks Tegna jumped the gum when it came to issuing furloughs. Here is their take:
With more and more indications that the virus is peaking and with more discussion about restrictions being loosened up, its obvious Tegna jumped the gun with furloughs.
The fact that no other station group joined them is more proof that the furloughs are not about Covid 19 but actually about a company that was already being run into the ground.
Scripps stock price is down to under 8 bucks a share. No furloughs
Sinclair took a huge hit with no sports on their recently acquired sports nets. No furloughs.
If you’re a Tegna employee you’re being hoodwinked by corporate bosses disguising what the real issue is.
