ENG is a broadcasting (usually television) industry acronym which stands for electronic news gathering. It can mean anything from a lone reporter taking a single camcorder out to get a story to an entire television crew taking a satellite truck on location to do a live report for a newscast. In its early days, the term ENG was used by newsroom staff to differentiate between the NG (newsgathering) crews that collected tv news with traditional film cameras and the new ENG crews who collected tv news with new electronic analogue tape formats like low band U-matic. The requirement for the differentiation stems from the radically different methods of post-production involved in video versus film. Film needed to be processed before editing, unlike tape where footage could be edited fairly quickly, thus dramatically reducing the turn-around time for a story. The use of film in newsgathering virtually disappeared by the mid 1980s. ...more on Wikipedia about "Electronic news gathering"

Is our team going down the tubes?" ...more on Wikipedia about "Happy talk"
