Married to a local businessman. My wife's career. After three moves in 12 years, I'm tired of moving. I'm home now. Happy at my station of 33 years, nearing retirement.
TV news is too unstable to justify a move.
The Age Factor Age is a good predictor of how soon a TV journalist will likely be leaving for a job in another city. Thirty-somethings stay around for five years. Position turnover relates to age. News anchors and photographers, more often in their 30s or older, have been there closer to four years. News directors are an exception.
