Cathie Batbie-Loucks
Enjoyed my time there. She's worked in the market for years and knows what viewers want to see. It's a laid back environment, but you need to be motivated to work. There's great content in this market. It's up to you how you want to put the story together.
Some are mad the station is hiring kids right out of college, but it's not the exception, it's become the rule. If you have a chance to work at this station straight out of school, it's a great opportunity. Cathie can be tough, but she's fair. Show up to work on time, be ready to work and drive far, and leave your personal drama at the door. Cathie is willing to take chances on people who probably don't deserve them. It's a relaxed environment and you can put together a great tape because there's plenty of great content. Many work here if they want to get to Phoenix. Nice place to live, pretty inexpensive too. They did a newsroom remodel in recent years. Chief photographer is nowhere to be found and is known to bully people. GM is a great guy, very laid back but he's all business. Bottom line, if you work hard, you're creative and you're positive, Cathie will love and help you. Remember it and never forget it.

She can be very manic and fails to listen to reason. However she is fair and means well in her decision making.
