What's with Channel 5 News. I am watching their 5 p.m. Newscast today for about 10 minutes and it looks like amateur hour. The camera goes off one anchor before he gets through talking and the video is switched to a silent anchor just looking into the camera smiling. After a report a reporter delivers a wrap up to the story in studio and his microphone is turned off. The anchors' microphones pick him up from a distance and I can hardly hear him. Is this problems with the equipment or incompetent
technical people. My college television production class did better.
