John Spiropoulos, Reporter/Producer

The Money Beat

I'm a former TV news reporter, writer and producer with 50 years experience in news and public policy reporting. I've piled up a few awards, including three local Emmys, in my half-century of work. 

  • In Washington, D.C. I was the boots-on-the-ground field reporter covering all the money issues for WJLA-TV,  local ABC affiliate. My beat was Personal Finance, the Economy, Federal Budget and Taxes. I did that for 10 years.
  •  Earlier in my career I wrote and produced the 6pm or 11pm news at TV stations in Washington, DC; Detroit, Miami and Louisville. Full Bio below.

Special Projects Through the Years

CyberCrime Fighting

I wrote, directed and produced a package of 36 videos teaching Federal, State and Local Law Enforcement how to detect and  investigate Internet and Computer Crime.

  • The project featured real world criminal cases and how state and local police agencies solved them. 
  • The program showed how digital evidence played a critical role in getting convictions in a wide spectrum of cases from fraud to child porn to homicide. 
  • The videos were shot on location with state and local police technology crime specialists in ten states from New York to California.
  • "CyberCrime Fighting" was produced for the  National White Collar Crime Center and funded by the U,S. Department of Justice. 




College Freshman Survival Guide

Ready for a pop quiz?  What does it take to succeed in college? Let's talk to the experts. But who is an expert in the eyes of an 18 year old freshman? 

A) a 50 year old professor or B) a 21  year old junior in college.  

If you answered "B," you passed the pop quiz.

  • This package of 38 videos featured my interviews with students and a few professors offering inside tips on how to succeed in college. 
  • The students explain how to study, how to take various types of tests, where to sit in class, how to take notes, how to write college-level papers, etc. 
  • The project was shot on location at a dozen college campuses ranging from small private schools to large public universities. 
  • Five major universities purchased a DVD copy for each freshman student. Yes, it's that good!
