DC News Director Out, Sort Of.....

WRC News Director Matt Glassman was bumped up from the Deuce job just over a year ago.

Now, he is leaving the station for a newly created job by NBC, in which Glassman will coordinate between the network and the local stations.

Glassman’s title was News Director, but he reported to Mike Goldrick, who is the VP of News. Many would say that Goldrick was the ND and Glassman was the Assistant News Director with the News Director title.

WRC has now posted a job opening for what appears to be Glassman’s old gig, but the position is Assistant News Director.

While job titles in today’s TV news are more just semantics, by listing the job as Assistant ND, NBC can pay less.

And, let’s by honest, in today’s TV news, it is all about spending less.
