Media Companies Have to Stop This...

Until media companies start paying a professional salary for a professional job, they will not get quality Journalists.

Steve Kraycik is a journalism professor and a TV agent. He pointed out this job opening at Nexstar’s DC station and the very low pay.

Other Journalists weighed in with their thoughts.

It’s not just Nexstar!

Many media companies still continue to pay salaries that closer to the fast-food industry than they are to true professional jobs.

FTVLive hears from News Directors and General Managers all the time complaining about how they can’t find good Journalists and are stuck with social media dancers.

If companies start paying better, you will get better applicants.
