I think the error on their programming schedule speaks for itself.

Probably one of those $10 an hour board ops also running the web site!

Not at WABC -- their engineers are union (NABET).
The website is most likely run out of the management side if not Citadel corporate.

Nope they are not! There are like 2 or 3 NABET Engineers left at WABC and not sure any of them run a board for a show. Most of the shows are run with non-union Board Ops. The Screeners are also NABET but not the board ops.
Bobby Cann informed us:
The same seems to be true everywhere, unfortunately. Skilled labor is being replaced by relatively low paid "board ops". A real shame, considering that broadcasters once prided themselves on hiring skilled labor and making technical excellence a priority.
With this kind of bottom-line thinking going on in the industry, it's a wonder that there aren't more technical snafus more often than there actually are.
