I spend 34 years working at a TV station, so yeah. Usually the crew and I were the ones being watched when tours came through. Also, I was in the studio audience for a Merv Griffin Show and a Tonight Show.
Have you ever been interviewed on TV or radio?
Only a couple of times, briefly. Earlier this year I was donating at the blood bank when a reporter from my old station came by and did some sound bites with me and others who donated. But the story never aired, a fairly common thing in the TV business as they often have to kill stories for time.
Years earlier when I was still working at the station, one of our reporters came through the break room with a cameraman and had me and some other people try samples of a new mineral water that was made with truffles. He recorded our reactions for a story that did make air. I still have an air check of it somewhere.
