BRACK: My first real work was under frantic and constant pressure

By Elliott Brack  |  It doesn’t hurt to be under pressure to see how you fare. Now what to me seems tame these days was right up there in a pressured situation back in my early days in a newsroom. It was the first Friday night in September with me just starting to work on The Macon Telegraph, the morning newspaper. Previously I had been on the afternoon paper, and moved to the a.m. paper on Labor Day.

BRACK: Initiation in frenzied Friday night sports coverage was exciting

By Elliott Brack  |  It was an exciting time for a young cub reporter.

On that first football Friday of the season, the entire staff of reporters at The Macon Telegraph were reminded to finish their news stories at least by 10 p.m., an hour earlier than the normal deadline.

For about that time, the telephones started ringing one after the other, as reports from all over South Georgia came in about local high school games.
