Adam Symson is making about as much sense as Maggie Simpson. In what world does recording newscasts improve your mission to inform the public? The number of breaking news stories they’ve had to ignore because of this is staggering.

The Scripps lighthouse is obviously a gaslight.

It’s absolute bullshit to do anyone that way that is an employee in good standing, but to do it to a brand new mother is a new low.

Execs at Low Standard Media should be ashamed of themselves, but they’re not. They’re probably out having a great time on a boat somewhere while the industry burns and shits on good people.

Email:

Her meeting with station management about contract renewal was the last day of her current contract?  That should be a red flag right there.

So they expect you to re-sign that day?

Many contracts stipulate that management has to come to the table no less than 30 days before the end of the contract.  And as a talent she should have been pro-active and approached them.

Reading your posts on TEGNA....when TEGNA (then Gannett) purchased the Belo stations 10 years ago, the Belo stations were all dominant #1s....(except wcnc in Charlotte). Then sadly the Belo stations became TEGNA'ized and lost their dominance, slipping to 2 or 3 in the ratings. TEGNA helped ruin journalism in the industry. And Dave Lougee's fingerprints are all over that murder weapon.
