Typical Day

   I thought I would give you a good look at what my day is like.

5:00 AM - Get up to deliver two paper routes

6:30 AM - Read paper and watch cable news program, Morning Joe on MSNBC.

7:30 AM - Get to work and start working on the plan for the day.

9:00 AM - Morning meeting to discuss story ideas and make decisions on what stories to cover.

9:30 AM - 5:00 PM - Work on assigned stories while making calls on future stories and reading whatever comes in the email and on the AP Wire.

We watch local and national news programs thorughout the day to make sure we dont miss a breaking news story.  I personally listen to talk radio much of the day to hear what people are talking about and see if it would be a good story to present with a local angle.

6:00 PM - If I am lucky I go home at this time.  On Tuesday chances are I will work until 8:00 or later because of city commission.

7:00 - 9:00 PM - work on another project I am doing for an organization while watching news programs.

9:30 PM - Bed time.

   As you can see I lead a pretty boring life.

  1. You bring me back to my days as a radio show producer. 14 hours a day for a 4 hour show. Eat, sleep, breathe what's going on around you, looking for the local (or show) angle.

    You do a good job, my man. Keep it up. I was glad to see you got a blog!
