NBC to Try and Do What Tegna Did Not (Patreon)

As you know, Tegna tried to reinvent TV news that they had hoped would attract a younger audience. 

It turned out and continues to be a flop, but at least Tegna showed stations what not to do. 

Now, NBC is going to try and get it right this time. 

NBC has soft launched NBC LX and it is trying to do what Tegna did except with real standards, Photographers, and Journalism.

Tegna wanted to reinvent news, but they wanted to do so on the cheap. They hired inexperienced kids to report, shoot, edit and post to the web. 

NBC LX wants that fresh approach, but they are not throwing Journalism aside like Tegna did. 

Here's the good news, NBC is still looking to fill a bunch of jobs at LX and this could be a chance for you to get in on the ground floor of a new way to do TV news. 

Yes, it could flop like Tegna, but you don't know until you try. 

Emily Porter is an NBC recruiter and she posted this to social media. 

If you want to take a chance on something new and see what happens, this might be it.
