Albert Einstein (1879-1955); Theoretical Physicist,
Philosopher, Nobel Prize Winner

Case Studies Discussion
DOING THE RIGHT THING
While working for another television station, the CEO
decided he wanted to move Little House on the Prairie
from 3-4pm so the Jerry Springer Show could be aired
there. This was in the days when Jerry Springer was
known for extremely foul language, hitting and
screaming episodes. The show did slightly better
ratings than Little House on the Prairie amongst
adults 18-49 years of age. Do you think moving Little
House on the Prairie out of the 3-4pm time period for
Jerry Springer was the “right” thing to do?
DOING THE RIGHT THING
Case Study 1
We had done a co-promotion with a large retailer who
happened to spend a lot of money with us in advertising as
well. At the end of the promotion, a winner had to have
his or her items scanned at the register and the person
closest to, without going over $1,000 would win the items
they had gathered in 5 minutes. One person had pre-
shopped and knew that his items would be $999.97. When
he had his items scanned, the cash register showed
$1000.03. There was an issue with the scanners. Although
this retailer spent thousands of dollars with the station in
advertising, how would you handle this knowing that we
are a news station?
DOING THE RIGHT THING
Case Study 2
Often times we get requests from potential
advertisers that if we are willing to do a news
story on their grand opening that they will
spend more money on us in advertising. How
would you decide what to do?
DOING THE RIGHT THING
Case Study 3
“The battle to succeed against our competitors
should be fought on the streets, not inside our
own building. I must have leaders that I can
trust so I can focus my energy on the battle
against the competition, not waste energy on
resolving internal issues of people I can not
trust.”
Jay Zollar
Vice President/General Manager WLUK / WCWF-TV

HOW DOES ONE KNOW

IT IS BETTER TO BE ALONE
THAN IN BAD COMPANY.”
George Washington

THINGS”
Phil 4 : 8

OUT TO HIM AND HE WILL
DIRECT YOUR PATH”
Proverbs 3:5-6

This was in the days when Jerry Springer was known for extremely foul language, hitting and screaming episodes.

  • 14. We had done a co-promotion with a large retailer who happened to spend a lot of money with us in advertising as well. At the end of the promotion, a winner had to have his or her items scanned at the register and the person closest to, without going over $1,000 would win the items they had gathered in 5 minutes. One person had pre- shopped and knew that his items would be $999.97. When he had his items scanned, the cash register showed $1000.03. There was an issue with the scanners. Although this retailer spent thousands of dollars with the station in advertising, how would you handle this knowing that we are a news station? DOING THE RIGHT THING Case Study 2
