Perils of the Press: Tech Tries To Evade The Camera . . . Unsuccessfully

As part of our series of the perils of the press, I had to post this golden example of how sometimes it is just better to walk off camera than to try an escape.

The scene reminded me of when I worked for CBS News and had to climb under the anchor table next to Dan Rather to pop up on the other side for a live hit. I found myself in a maze of wire and cords as I worked my way around Dan’s legs. It was an intimate beginning for my contract with CBS and work with Rather.
