Have you ever wondered whose brainchild it was while you’re sitting watching a fabulous TV show or enjoying a news website? If so, this episode is for you.
It was a privilege to chat with Phil Balboni recently. His pioneering contributions to broadcast and cable TV are extraordinary.
A former vice president and news director of WCVB-TV Boston (Channel 5), he created and launched “Chronicle” a nightly news magazine, making it a staple of local journalism for over forty years.
He has had his fingers in all facets of the news and broadcasting industry for years, including notable projects such as New England Cable News (NECN) and the subscription-based Daily Chatter newsletter, which showcases his versatility and influence.
He’s a Vietnam vet, and beyond his achievements, his service strengthens his reputation as dependable, inspiring respect and admiration among the audience.
