RE: What goes on before a newscast?

in #dlive6 years ago

Now I suddenly miss working for the news. I was just an election researcher for 3 months. This is actually a calmer side of what goes on before and even during a newscast. I witnessed the hustle and bustle - how a lot of people would run here and there, shout or scream sometimes, and some even cry. I loved the adrenaline rush that it brings, just watching from the sides and keeping away from the aisles or you'll get hit by the rush of people, be the cause of delay of the news and get reprimanded or fired. Hahaha! Ahhh... those were the days! Thank you for sharing!

Oh you used to work for the news? That’s awesome! So true, the adrenaline rush is something else: it can get you high but it can also burn you down if done consistently over a long period of time. ☺️ Sometimes a bit of chillaxing should be in order too.
Im very happy you liked the video :) thank you!

Do presenters have inner conflicts, if you find yourself reporting things that you know to be untrue, but have to follow the broadcast companies 'line'...? or has this never happened ?

A question I have often wondered about.

Hi lucylin :) as far as I am concerned I haven’t had that experince yet.. but it reminds me of those times when US broadcast companies followed and reported heavily about paris hilton. Some news presenters got so tired of it that they refused to read the news about Hilton. One even shredded the script 😁 so I guess that happens.

Thanks.
...Good to know integrity still exists in the media! lol

It should!!😂 Otherwise we wont have jobs anymore 🤗

It should, but it generally doesn't, from what I see( unfortunately).

....I think it's a dying industry, to be honest...so last century!
😂 ... Pesky internet...
