If you’re a news anchor, you understand

Recent email to the newsroom:

If you would, please make sure you keep the control room mics off as much as possible. The hearing in my right ear, which I ruined working an assignment desk years ago, has diminished significantly in recent months. So while I can hear fine in the left ear which has my IFB, I’m struggling to hear the meteorologist in my other ear. That makes it difficult when we’re transitioning out of weather and I can’t hear what he/she is saying if the mic is left open.

Thanks,

On Martin Luther King

He didn’t go around telling people what needed to change in America. He went around and told people what he believed. ‘I believe, I believe, I believe,‘ he told people. And people who believed what he believed took his cause, and they made it their own, and they told people. And some of those people created structures to get the word out to even more people. And lo and behold, 250,000 people showed up on the right day at the right time to hear him speak. How many of them showed up for him? Zero. They showed up for themselves. It’s what they believed about America that got them to travel in a bus for eight hours to stand in the sun in Washington in the middle of August.
