When I posted Otis Taylor's breaking news message about the latest front-line talent change at a Columbia television station, one of my Facebook "friends" commented, "ouch, not very stable lately…" That's not a good commentary coming from a viewer and television stations should take note.
While those of us who have made our livings in television news would like to think we are irreplaceable, it just isn't true. Change is often difficult, scary and sometimes unnecessary. Despite those things, change is almost always inevitable. Change can be tough to accept, for everyone involved, but eventually things stabilize again.
