I don't even remember what we call it, like Instacams or all these things that are sitting in the room, right, where you can do an update or a news tease or whatever. Right. But when the earthquake happens in Los Angeles, the entire newsroom stops.

I've never seen anything like it, by the way, because it's like, you know, an ant farm and everybody's going on their own little business, working on their own stories. The earthquake happens, everybody stops. And then the second the earthquake is over, everybody moves in a different direction because they know their whole job has just changed 180 degrees.

Everybody got that message at the same time. But what would happen is nothing was ready at the set where you do the nightly news for this. So you turn on the Instacam or whatever in the newsroom and there is no copy for the person who's on the... Right.

So all of a sudden, so all of a sudden, some of the most high paid and I will not mention their names because there are many of them are still alive. Some of the highest paid, most well-known anchors in America are up there fumbling over what to say. And other people that were not as high paid and not as well known just slay it live like that.

And let me just say that that was where I figured out what history majors who don't want to teach history can do. Right. History journalism is the first draft of history.

We had you know, you had you had your reporters for certain gigs, but we kept about 15 to 20 percent of the staff for hard news. And the number of people in the hard news group that were history majors, um, that was where I first realized, Oh, this is where you can go with a history degree. And they never tell you that.
