New jobs listed on TVNewsCheck’s Media Job Center include openings for a promotion manager in Lincoln, Neb., and a promotions producer in Nashville.

Meredith Broadcasting announced a new initiative called the Meredith Creative Group that will take over the marketing and creative services of its 17 TV stations across the country.

WSMV aired live cut-ins to help raise funding and educate viewers on what they can do to help the Red Cross and their neighbors rebuild the areas affected by the tornadoes that tore through Nashville and Putman County in the early hours of Tuesday morning, March 3.

Most news ratings that change in any market year-to-year are measured in single digits. You rarely see a station grow its ratings in one newscast by 30% or more. But that’s exactly what Meredith’s WSMV Nashville did, not just in one newscast, but across five of its early evening newscasts.

The latest job posted to TVNewsCheck’s Media Job Center is for a senior graphic artist for Meredith’s NBC affiliate in what Travel+Leisure ranked as the country’s friendliest city.

The National Press Photographers Association honored Forrest Sanders, a multimedia journalist at WSMV, Meredith’s NBC affiliate in Nashville, with a Solo Video Journalist of the Year award this past weekend.
