Pepito

Pepito is the Executive Producer of Barely Informed News.

Appearing from the control room via the dedicated “Producer Cam,” Pepito is a canine broadcast executive featuring pointed ears, alert dark eyes, and a distinguished tuft of white hair. He is also occasionally designated on station monitors as Peptron 3000.

Overview & Network Operations

Pepito oversees control room operations, production switching, and broadcast timing. He was promoted to Executive Producer following the unceremonious firing of former producer Peter Gibbon.

Pepito officially opens every broadcast at the top of the hour with his signature station announcement:

“I’m Pepito, I’m the dog that produces the show, and now it is live, and I’m a dog.”

Beyond station management, Pepito is known for asserting his demands across the control room intercom, which have included refusing to perform parlor tricks and declaring his intent to consume an entire bag of sangria over holiday weekends.

Key Attributes & Lore

• Executive Authority: Coordinates live production queues, switching feeds, and managing anchor handoffs.
• Station Cold-Open: Delivers the official top-of-hour broadcast sign-on and countdown across all network channels.
• Audio Recognition: Demonstrates an acute ear for live audio discrepancies, famously identifying vocal imposters during metaphysical control room incidents.
• Beverage & Culinary Demands: Known for issuing sudden hospitality demands to newsroom interns, notably requiring large quantities of pasta and wine.
