Columbia

The new openings, for a general sales manager and a director of sales, are in San Francisco and Columbia, Mo., respectively.

Lyle Schulze was once general manager of WCTI in New Bern, N.C. He emailed me to comment on how WCTI survived Hurricane Florence.  “They are to all be commended for their perseverance and courage to continue to deliver life-saving information to the viewers of eastern North Carolina.”

When a carload of fake news hecklers recently shut down a news live shot, Lyle Schulze, the general manager of WIS had seen enough and called police. “It’s getting almost to the point of violence. We remind our reporters that you’re a visible target. It is a little scary.” The incident encouraged the station to sound off.
