Let&#8217;s start off by getting a simple fact out of the way &#8211; I&#8217;m not a big fan of TV news. I have worked in newspapers all my professional life, either on staff or as a freelancer, and have seen the way my broadcast counterparts get the job done.<\/p>\n<p>There are many great people in the industry, but laziness (see how many times a story they did is strangely similar to something you read in the newspaper that morning) and self-promotion are far too often the things I remember. To be fair, the over-aggressiveness of print types is often our calling card, so not everyone&#8217;s perfect. Luckily, in my second career in public relations, I have learned that there are lots of people behind the scenes in TV news who don&#8217;t fit the Ron Burgundy stereotype. Still, there are some people out there that need some help.<\/p>\n<p>First of all, they posted a video of a small child getting excited every time the station&#8217;s news theme came on the air. Really? You&#8217;re posting a video someone sent you of their infant getting giddy over your news theme? Don&#8217;t hurt your shoulder patting yourself on the back, even for something as silly and random as that.<\/p>\n<p>The second thing was what really raised my hackles. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/posted.php?id=104992520955&amp;share_id=128829997141514&amp;comments=1#s128829997141514\" target=\"_blank\">In the item<\/a>, they said someone sent them a link &#8220;to a U-Tube video.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>U-Tube?<\/p>\n<h3>U-Tube?<\/h3>\n<h2>U-Tube?????<\/h2>\n<p>I know the kids these days like to shorten things to make it easier when they text and IM their friends and stuff, but for crissakes, this is a &#8220;professional&#8221; news organization shortening the name of a business. For all we know, U-Tube is some ripoff of Youtube.<\/p>\n<p>To top it off, you know how much work these &#8220;pros&#8221; saved themselves? One freaking key stroke. Youtube is seven characters. U-Tube is six. Bravo, kids.<\/p>\n<p>Is it worth saving one keystroke to try and look hip? Is it worth one keystroke to show that people in the newsroom might not take accuracy and professionalism seriously? But I guess if you&#8217;re getting excited because a child gets distracted by random music, the whole notion of acting like an adult has gone completely out the window.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe it&#8217;s just me, but if people are going to wail and gnash their teeth every time a newspaper doesn&#8217;t get things perfect (if you don&#8217;t think they do, check out the comment board on any newspaper site), they shouldn&#8217;t endorse a TV station further dumbing down its communication.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The other day, an item from one of my local TV stations popped up on my Facebook page.
