Sponsor Love - NWT

FTVLive has become a must read for everyone that works in, or wants to work in TV news. 

But, this site would not survive without our sponsors and it's time to give one of those sponsors a little love. 

Many companies have asked to advertise on FTVLive and we have turned many of them down. If we don't believe in the company or the job they do, we say no to their ad dollars.

FTVLive lets only the best of the best place an ad on this website. We want you to know that these are companies that are good at what they do and that you can trust them. 

Companies like NWT. 

Linda Levy and Jan Allen are the principals and founders of The NWT Group.
Back in the day of big shoulder pads and even bigger hair, they were among the first female news directors in the country.  It was inevitable they would become friends.

They also found themselves making nationwide reputations for overseeing successful turnaround situations in the newsrooms they headed up.

Linda Levy has been a News Director in markets ranging from large...including the top ten market at KTVT, the CBS O&O in Dallas ...to medium, including WKBW in Buffalo, WDSU in New Orleans and KOCO in Oklahoma City...to small, such as KATC in Lafayette, LA.

Jan Allen has been called everything from the "queen of the turnarounds" to a" hired gun."  And, well, some other things she just doesn't want to talk about.

Jan was Vice-President and Station Manager of KATU in Portland, Oregon, where she was responsible for News, Creative Services, Design, Operations, I.S., and Local Programming. Local shows were the daily morning talker "A.M. Northwest" and the weekly "Town Hall". The name says it all.

Together the two have put together a talent agency that is making a name for themselves and packing their roster with top-notch talent.
