I spent 28 years in television news, and I loved it. Don’t get me wrong, there were some crazy and toxic bosses. But most of them are long gone, and I’m still standing. I covered many notable assignments, interviewed exciting people, some famous, but most not, and was where history happened.
TV news is a great career, but you must know you don’t have banker hours, miss many Christmas holidays with your family, and often the pay could be better if you can negotiate a good contract. But I hope I can inspire you to stick with it if you feel it’s time to move on.
