Day 3: Planning Day

I had a feeling this would happen when I decided to chronicle 100 Days of TV News.    I’ve been given what my bosses at WYFF News 4 refer to as a “planning day.”   That is, no on-air reporting.  No electronic news gathering.  Just a day to sit at my desk and develop promotable stories for the sweeps month of November.

That’s me.  The sweeps guy.  The Looking Out 4 You dude.  The reporter who blows the lid off of…something.   But what?   Don’t worry.  It’s not like I’m sitting here starting from scratch.  I have my eye on several big investigations.

They are somewhere to the left of the box of microwave popcorn.


A quick note about the author:  Tim Waller lives in Greenville, South Carolina. He is a news reporter at Hearst Television station WYFF-TV.
