Dancing with America's next top reporter

The writer's strike, even if it ends today, has played havoc with all the schedules in Hollywood. Movie releases will be OK for awhile, but TV is in trouble. And even though December is not exactly a month filled with great stuff in prime time, one thing is going to become painfully obvious as the networks run out of fresh episodes.

Unless you love reality shows, there's not going to be anything worth watching in prime time.

This is an opportunity for stations around the country to make newscasts appointment television once again. You have your own thirty minute reality show every night (see title above), and it's time to get back to filling it with stories that make viewers take notice.

You might end up with some good stuff for your resume tape as well.
