From the Mailbag: How Many Directors Do You Have at Channel 3

From Aaron in Bay Village:

Q: Are you the only director or are there others?

A: Because of the huge amount of newscasts and other local production we do 7 days a week, we have a staff of 4 Directors plus our Production Manager, Al who also helps us direct.

Mark directs the morning news & Good Company; Al does the 11 AM, many of the 6 PM News and a lot of our sports productions; I cover the rest of the 6 PM, plus 7 & 11 PM news on Channel 3 & the 10 PM Akron Canton News; & Eric and Matt direct the weekend morning and evenings shows on Channel 3 and most of 6:30 PM Akron Newscasts during the week.
