The Editorial Meeting:

Each producer holds a daily editorial meeting.

The producer:

• Discusses the daily rundown, telling the staff what each story is about.
• Asks the group if they have anything to add.
• Assigns graphics for each story to the multimedia designer
• Assigns Lexis-Nexis topics to the editorial assistant to find additional background information.
• Suggests linking possibilities for the web editors.

Stories are picked up by each writer-associate producer team as they become available. It means you "have to be an expert on everything," says Producer Suzanne Eichner. "It pushes stories through faster."
