That's the new local news model - 1 person drives the truck out to the auto crash or tornado site, raises the mast, sets up a small VC on a tripod set to infinity, plugs in the mic, turns on the vid lights and teleprompter by remote when cued from "studio" (or speaks from notes or memory) and starts talking.
No sound man.
No video man.
No driver/grip
4 person crews are network only.
