I to used to work in the QC,I found it as a good place to work also, KWQC is the leader, but is lacking in the new tools for the business,ie:still editing tape to tape, i believe no editors in the live trucks,Anchors have been at the station forever.WQAD,owned by the New York Times,good place to work i hear, very aggressive, they just got a sat truck,all the new toys in the newsroom, win alot of awards,great photog staff,and senior reporters to learn from. WHBF, all one man band, they try very hard but is a very distant third, owner sucks and doesnt put much into the station.The FOX station, dont know much about,only have one newscast, Sunday thru Friday. I found the QC a great place to start.lots of news,very competitive,lots of things to do every weekend, from May to about Nov. then the winter sets in. Cost of housing good,really not all bad, I think calling it a dump and to stay away is much to harsh!!
