9 to 5
Web Video
9 to 5 is an innovative documentary-style show produced by WJCT Productions. The concept is to expose the audience to various occupations and to uncover what truly lies behind one’s job title. 9 to 5 attempts to dispel the myths and misconceptions, inquire about the decisions made and the paths taken and ask if and/or how their particular job has changed them or their view of the world.

First Coast Forum
A quarterly series of interactive community forums designed to address critical challenges facing Florida’s First Coast and to engage the community in resolving them. Each program brings First Coast business and community leaders together for discussion, and gives community members an opportunity to weigh in. Launched in July 2001, the quarterly forums broadcast live on TV and radio.
First Coast Forum: Charting Jacksonville’s Future
Aired January 28th at 8pm on WJCT-TV and WJCT 89.9FM.
WJCT’s First Coast Forum will examine various proposals now before the Charter Revision Commission, which meets once a decade to review Jacksonville’s charter (the City’s constitution) and decide whether any changes should be made. These recommendations are forwarded to the Jacksonville City Council, which must decide which ones to follow through on, and how they must go about making the changes. Among the recommendations now being discussed: making the Duval County School Board appointed officials instead of elected ones, and changing the election cycles for city officials. The Commission is scheduled to make its final recommendations in February.
Panelists
- Wyman Duggan, Chairman, Charter Revision Commission
- Matt Corrigan, Political Science Professor, UNF
- John Delaney, UNF President and former Mayor
- Jerry Holland, Duval County Supervisor of Elections
- Ron Littlepage, Florida Times-Union Columnist
- Jim Crooks, Historian, Professor Emeritus at UNF
