Customer Service to Be Thankful For!
Today is Thanksgiving and within a few hours people will be streaming into my house to enjoy their share of turkey and the trimmings and pumpkin pie.It’s my job to cook this feast, or should I say to re-cook it, because for the last several years I’ve purchased a packaged meal from a local market. They assemble the sides and pre-cook the bird, leaving only the heating-up and serving functions to me.Because I’m not that great in a kitchen, it’s a small challenge for me to get it all together and to present it on time, to guests.But this year was more daunting.Yesterday, I flew back from Brazil after delivering a new sale

The Lonelygirl15 Hoax - Home Schooled Entertainment or Viral Marketing?
Do you remember where you were when Lonelygirl15 was exposed as a hoax?

The world of broadcasting may look glamorous, but behind that news anchor or radio disc jockey are many, many people that make what you see on the television or hear on the radio possible. So, what does the broadcasting industry consists of? Radio and television stations and networks that create content or acquire the right to broadcast taped television and radio programs. Networks transmit their signals from broadcasting studios via satellite signals to local stations or cable distributors. Broadcast signals then travel over cable television lines, satellite distribution systems, or the airwaves from a station’s transmission tower to the antennas of televisions and radios.

Radio and television stations and networks broadcast a variety of programs, such as national and local news, talk shows, music programs, movies, other entertainment, and advertisements. Stations produce some of these programs, most notably news programs, in their own studios.

This is a competitive industry, particularly in large metropolitan areas. How can you be successful in this field? By having a college degree in broadcasting or a related field, and relevant experience, such as work at college radio and television stations or internships at professional stations. Many entry-level positions are at smaller broadcast stations so you must be willing to change employers, and sometimes relocate, in order to be successful.
