Another sign of the times: Dying medium does story on dying medium

Here’s the NBC Nightly News segment shot last week at The Palm Beach Post and broadcast Tuesday night. Included here at Matt’s suggestion. Probably not coincidentally, he’s in the background between 1:31 and 1:34 while The Post’s VP of digital is talking.

Sweet! He should have showed off his foot mouse and bragged about how tough times are. “This poor worker can’t EVEN get a normal computer mouse.”
Unfortunately, it looks like he had to share the screen with 1/3 of an NBC audio grip butting into the frame on the right side.

Tim was standing right in front of me in that shot. And I was really trying hard to appear super busy, too. Also upset they didn’t get my old “Make the switch” Sun-Sentinel rack card on camera.

Growing up there were two guarantees at dinner–food and Tom Brokaw.
