So, we had an interesting last few days I can report on.
There’s been a whole new buzz here.
We launched a bunch of revamped commercials and interstitials (the station call-sign, usually only a few milliseconds, now in glorious full-screen action), quickly followed by the deliveries of the first round of TXT-TV swag – stickers and Technicolor t-shirts; a must for any fashionista this summer!
Next came an interesting moderator-wide email reminding us to exercise a bit of caution (or at least some rudimentary research skills) when handling topic and issue suggestions from our loyal viewers. Turns out one of the subjects recently sent in to an episode of My Life Sux was in fact posted to another website recently.
But it wasn't one of our intrepid leaders who caught this - it was one of you - our loyal viewers.
Some of us have been trying to see what the limits are with regards to what we can post as topics, say to the public etc. It’s not in-house boundary pushing either – our myriad of bosses have made it abundantly clear what the boundaries are from within. No, what I’m talking about is more like whether or not you guys buy what we’re talking about. Clearly some of you do, since many of our topics elicit quite a fair bit of response.
But some of you are super sharp, eyes like eagles etc.
In my experience, I’ve had three unique texters tell me my facts were slightly off, or that a news story has changed since when I read it, and how something that may have been objectionable has in fact become acceptable due to new developments.
Long story short, we’re all learning quite a bit from you guys.So keep it coming....
