Look mom I'm on TV!

 

I was producing the morning talk show on Thursday and got a call from another producer. An ABC television crew was asking to come up and tape the production of our hour dedicated to the SFPD video police "scandal". This wasn't a strange request, as tv news likes to get footage of our "VU meters" moving, hosts discussing a political issue, or capture sound from dialog with a caller.

What I didn't know in advance was that this crew was a national ABC crew from World News Tonight. Good thing I was wearing a nice sweater and happened to style my hair that morning. That's the funny thing about radio. Usually we can show up in jeans and a hoodie on the weekends because it's radio. ;-) This will be the 3rd time in 6 months that I've been on national television. At this rate I'm going to have a get an agent.
