Meet John Camacho, the staffer keeping Atlanta's CNN Center functioning amid the coronavirus shutdown
Like most broadcasters, CNN has adapted to the social distancing mandates that have been put in place across the country. The network's anchors now routinely broadcast from their homes.
They are able to go on the air amid the pandemic thanks to a group of staffers who continue to go to work. One of those workers is John Camacho, a senior BTS engineer on the company’s broadcast technology services team. He’s part of a four-person team that works the day shift at the CNN Center in Atlanta, where he monitors the broadcasting equipment and performs routine maintenance to ensure that the news network's signal continues to reach viewers’ homes, even during a nationwide shutdown.
Though he’s still driving into the office each day, Camacho has found himself navigating a new normal, too. He’s working longer hours, video conferencing with his colleagues to avoid face-to-face interactions and taking extra precautions to keep his family isolating at home — including his wife and one of two adult sons — safe.
