Welcome to the PIT List!

I'm a network field producer who also worked in local tv as a line producer and field producer. Over the years, I have had the great fortune to work with super people. Now I'd like to pass along what I know and rant a tad.

What to Tease

So let's say you are a producer have the choice of two stories to tease all night long. Do you:

A) Tease the story about how police are pulling over "good" drivers?

B) Tease the story, with video, of a woman being tossed out of a car on the highway?

Correct answer: B!

You don't have to put "B" in your first block but you should put it in and tease the good video. "Good drivers" is dull and it's been done.
