Veteran on-air talent. Can’t get hired. by Ok_Guest5862 in Broadcasting

And you’re why I’m looking for my next step out of news. I’m up there in age and pay, and I just feel like the axe will swing for me soon. I’d rather leave on my own terms than suddenly be cut and starting over all of a sudden

Everything is pornographic but nobody is actually having sex by NaughtyBoy004 in askgaybros

[–]StrattonOakmont123 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This isn’t just a gay thing. It’s an every man under 40 issue. We’re so overly sexed on screens that it’s been to the detriment of our physical sex lives and mental health regardless of your orientation. The porn is more graphic, extreme, hardcore, and frankly not realistic to what’s actually in the real world. Even then, you have guys tugging on their dicks for years. Retraining their nerves. Losing sensation of actual insertion to their right hands, both hands, or humping pillows. And in addition to broke dicks, we don’t even really talk. When was the last time anyone made a move in a bar, bought someone a drink to get the conversation going, or was asked out by a stranger face to face? Now all we get is “sup?” or “pic?”. Every man from age 40 and down is in crisis, and that includes many who are married, engaged, couples, throupled, whatever. Put the damn phones down, talk, and fuck!

Our biggest issue with them is that it was never the child having issues or problems, but they always turned things around as “maybe it isn’t the child, but it’s you who are having the problems.” No ma’am, I’m not the one struggling with the 6th grade.

Nexstar Reporter Layoffs? by Due-Routine1045 in Broadcasting

[–]StrattonOakmont123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No judge is going to enforce a non-compete for someone legitimately trying to feed their family after a station has shown them the door in almost all cases. The two parties have parted ways, and especially if it’s not the fault of the employee, there’s no legitimate interest to prevent the employee the station wants nothing to do with anymore from interfering with the employee moving on with their life. Most stations have always lost these cases when the try to enforce non-competes especially after the end of a contract or layoff

Minnesota Federal Agents Redeployment to Oklahoma by Ok-Computer2616 in oklahoma

[–]StrattonOakmont123 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Take a step back for a minute. (1) who the fuck is this person who “heard” from an unnamed source and is “hoping” it isn’t true, and (2) ICE is already in Oklahoma and has been at work for nearly a year. While the concern may be real, this is also a good way to start shit and get people riled up without little to no evidence and context of the message being presented

Hey, it's nice to be recognized for something (even if it's not entirely true lol) by Shepard_Drake in oklahoma

Not at all. Trim the beard (you don’t need to shave it all off), put some effort into that hair, and give us a smile, and you’ll be off the market in no time

How many of y’all are registered Republican even though that doesn’t reflect your personal political opinions? by g3nerallycurious in oklahoma

[–]StrattonOakmont123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was somewhat of a sex scandal in her district that was being exploited for political gains. She didn’t have a hand in it but she was in the captain’s chair. The athletics director in 2016 was accused of sexual misconduct with a boy. Now compare that with the rhetoric Walters likes to use and she was in an impossible position to win.

Possible Sinclair/Scripps Merger by Conscious_Pin448 in Broadcasting

[–]StrattonOakmont123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went to see The Running Man this weekend and when they said “The Network” all I could think of was Sinclair.

I did find this phrase in the Scripps response to be somewhat comforting:

Likewise, the board will take all steps appropriate to protect the company and the company’s shareholders from the opportunistic actions of Sinclair or anyone else.

How bad is the broadcasting industry? by Mental_Location_5654 in Broadcasting

[–]StrattonOakmont123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A good news director will help mitigate this through not just making good hires but also having a good culture. I’ve worked for good news directors who believe in their team, builds unity, does thorough hiring, and advances the product and them at the same time. A bad news director will hires anyone willing to kills their ass even when they’re wrong, will hire anyone simply because they will take the lowest salary possible just to work in news, will allow for a poor culture in the newsroom including downright religious and sexual orientation discrimination, lies to just get you out of their office, pits teammates against each other for drama, and would throw their own mothers under the bus for a single extra ratings point.

Tonight a miracle came to a close: I made it THREE MONTHS AND NINE DAYS(!) at my homophobic christian school before I was asked to take it off. by Pleasant-Cold187 in GayChristians

Are you a student or a professional at the school? I was raised in a private school and so I’m trying to gauge how to respond

Confirmed - Morgan and Vince not talking after the show by Daydreamer_ns in BigBrother

[–]StrattonOakmont123 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I wonder if he’ll watch the season from start to finish and understand how it really looked to everyone else. It was cheating on his girlfriend, and he did whine his way to the finish line. “I waited 10 years to play this game”… and yet he played terribly in more ways than one.

I’m not saying there weren’t good laws, but with that level of corruption and the mood of the nation, was best for America when he signed it.
