In Reply To: I was an EP at Channel 2 back in the late 80's, and you could not be more dead wrong. Monica is a fine writer and re-writer and is a terrific reporter when given the chance. When Ray Charles died earlier this year, WSB put an old piece of Monica's with Ray, up on the internet. It was a wonderful piece. She's chased enough bank holdups and covered enough shootings, and certainly does not need to pay any more news. She is the most beloved news anchor I've ever seen in a modern television situation. It is true that WSB's dominance of the rest of the market is rather amazing, something you rarely see any more. In part, they've been blessed with inept competition from Gannett and Meredith, but they've made the most of it.
Message: "And when you've been in the market 30 years, you've paid your dues. So why should she have to write a package?" Wow, I bet you're a pleasure to work with, donning an attitude like that.
