No agent worth his salt will take less than 5%. The industry norm is 5 or 6% for broadcast news. No one pays 10% unless they're being taken for a ride. 10% is the agent rate for non-news jobs like actors or writers. Sundog doesn't know what he's talking about. |

I have friends who are repped by napoli and W. Morris and they all have to pay 10 percent.
It seems to be the norm.
I know thats what Geller asked for when i interviewed with them a while back. I said no to that.
