Well I think there are variations. Here at KTLA, I�m not doing the breaking news like I did for so many years. Most of them is listening to the police radio and going on scheduled stories. You go to the city council, you go to the Hollywood and various other things that are going on. You do brief stories, a minute and a half sometimes they go two minutes. You do that, and you have to keep in mind that your broadcast is at 5:30. So when it gets to be 1 o clock, you better have your story finished and written and know what you want to do, if you�re in the field, you have the television capability to sending a closed circuit back to the station. You�ve written your script, you�ve shot your video, you send your thing to the stations and they edit it and put it on the air. It takes a chain of people to do the right thing to get the right report on the 6 o clock news.
