Recommendation: Kevin Newman, CBC Global National, ABC News

"Its about feeling safe on the high-wire of live television. And Ian has that rare ability to sense when you're about to take a risk, when you're staying safe, and when to throw out the rescue rope."

Thanks, Kevin!

Being supportive of anchors is the best part of the job.  Those magic production-side moments when everyone, from producer on down to prompter, are in the same breath, making a newscast that is capable of changing with change on a moment's notice.  Best part of the job.
