This is part two of, "I'm going to hang up on you now". James talks to fellow recovering news producer Tim Millard about the significance of market size, the other parts of a TV station besides news, and how you can manipulate the Nielsen ratings with breaking news. They also spill the tea on Atlanta's CBS 46. In James's first year at the station, four of his bosses were fired, an anchor suddenly died, and the main anchor was terminated for pushing Hillary Clinton conspiracy theories on the air. Finally, they talk about an industry website that helped guide their career decisions. Stand by, we are tackling this story like no one else can as we plow through the bureaucracy!
