Christina Erne is a meteorologist and a journalist at News 10, Albany's ABC/FOX affiliate.

The candidate should discuss the ways in which they will reach out to the community to make his or herself an available and respectable source of information when someone needs it. That means forging relationships with those they will be inviting to events or sending press releases, and being pleasant when answering questions. The candidate should discuss the ways in which they plan to be a good PIO.
