Journalism wasn’t a word I knew growing up in Florida. It wasn’t a job people had in my neighborhood. Even when I started working as an assignment editor for my local TV station, my mom used to tell people I ran the teleprompter. A teleprompter was a tangible object. How a journalist gathered the news and shared it on television was not. To my mom, work was physical labor, and working a piece of equipment was something she could understand.
After 40 years in this industry, 33 at NBC, I am now the NBCUniversal News Group’s executive vice president of diversity, equity and inclusion.
