Love Al Michaels! Didn't know he was a news reporter too. His best work in my opinion was the 1980 Winter Olympic hockey game between the U.S. VS RUSSIA. "DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIRACLES". Best play by play ever!
He never actually held a job as a news reporter, but on this night, he was able to do news reporting so well that it won him three Emmys.
@@Larry_Harvilla One of the best ever!
Michaels did a terrific job. They couldn't have had a better announcer on scene
Jim McKay did the same thing at Munich.
Got his start as radio announcer with the Cincinnati reds
What I find noteworthy here is, even though he's on a telephone call with a colleague, he still sounds like a professional reporter. It doesn't LOOK like a broadcast situation, though I may be wrong about that. If it is a live broadcast report, it is still more than respectably professional.
Hi. This was a unique situation in that it was just after the 1989 San Francisco earthquake. Michaels & others & their crew were scrambling to get on the air anyway they could to report out what was happening. In this case, Al was using the telephone only to be able to hear cues from the anchor. His satellite uplink had microphone & video to the network/master control. Normally, the network programming was fed into an earpiece (IFB) the reporter would wear. All in all, a neat look at how these folks hustled to get on the air. I've uploaded some other bits from that day.
THE GOAT 🐐
