> Technical director is certainly not a low title

Could be, depends on the organisation. I've met "Executive Directors" at major banks who had a team of 20 people and "Vice Presidents" who were effectively dev team leads with 5 guys working for them in a company of hundreds of thousands.

In the context of a TV news channel, it could be basically anyone. He could be responsible for making sure the weather desk have the correct lighting setup.

It seems you have been misled by a partisan hack.

It's certainly not an editorial title.

Yeah, sounds like mid-level technical role with some on-shift people-management thrown in, not editorial and not in the boardroom either.
