Amy Sullivan
Brash, incompetent news director; no newsroom leadership; everyone is just coasting
An Overall Toxic Work Environment
Very bad place to be. Everyone is expected to do double-duty. If you're an anchor, you produce. If you're a producer, you're producing 2 shows. If you're an MMJ, you're doing hits for both stations (duopoly). There is a lack of action when it comes to breaking news. We were always short-staffed. The news director is a producer, not a leader, and the way she carries herself makes that obvious. There's no real leadership here, everyone is just coasting. We can't even look up to the anchors for real advice because they're the same age as MMJs and producers. It's like college all over again.

An Overall Toxic Work Environment
This place is nothing but a shit show. Management needs to change especially the General Manager. She is nothing but a drama seeker, if you are a favorite then you can get away with murder. The former news director wasn’t any better. He would get after anyone who did their job accordingly but the ones who always mess up or can’t even do their job will always get praised. They hire unqualified people for jobs. The station it self is being ruled by a 20 year old immature child who is a director who is only a high school graduate with no news/production experience at a. All she does is call in sick every week and tries to get people in trouble with the assistant news director and the general manager. Good people who worked here were treated like crap but good for them for leaving to bigger and better stations.
This place isn’t worth working for. No one likes working here, don’t expect to bring in any ideas because they won’t care for it. They do basic boring shows with no attention to detail on anything. You are better off going to the competitor station. I wouldn’t want anyone to work for this station at all, unless you wanna be bossed around by a child, have a disorganized and chaotic news room. If you wanna be lazy and get away with that kinda work then this station is for you. If you actually want to advance in your career and have management and co workers who care then don’t come here.
