Greetings!
My name is Timothy Weisberg and I have more than three years experience producing local newscasts. From 2014-2017, I was a news producer with ABC10 in Sacramento, producing the 6 p.m. and Late News Tonight (11 p.m.). I got my start at New York University during graduate school, helping produce school newscasts that were streamed live online.
After graduating with an M.A. in journalism from NYU in the winter of 2013, I took a job as a producer at KUSA, the NBC station in Denver. It was part of TEGNA’s Talent Development program, which provided on-the-job training for producers who would then work for another TEGNA-owned station. I then moved to ABC10 in July of 2014, working primarily as an assignment editor, before helping launch the new 4:30 a.m. newscast in January 2015.
In August 2017, I transitioned out of TV news to embark on a new career as a Public Information Officer, first with Caltrans in downtown Los Angeles and since May 2018, with the California Office of Traffic Safety in the Sacramento area. It’s an exciting time to work on the other side, and find creative ways to disseminate information that is engaging for an audience that demands it!
In my spare time, I enjoy hiking, skateboarding, and binge-watching Better Call Saul. I’m still passionate about news so if you have a great story idea, be sure to drop me a note!
