“I love and respect Scott’s work, but his efforts ‘backstage’ are what I’m most envious of,” says Drew Cook, a coworker at WAVE. “Scott is respected and loved because he respects and loves. He’s WAVE’s bus driver, roadie, lighting tech, audio engineer, tour manager and publicist. The sensitivity he feels for both his subjects and his coworkers is astounding. Everyone he encounters is treated with unique and genuine care. There is no one with a bigger heart or better understanding of people than Scott. His stories and his role in the newsroom reflect this. I know he’s proud to be Region 4’s POY.”
