Frank McGee | Salary Undisclosed

Frank McGee started his colorful and triumphant journalism career back in the mid-’40s, working for KGFF in Oklahoma and shifted to WKY-TV. After a decade, he became a news director. As this network was affiliated to NBC and the Civil Rights Movement came to light, NBC started to notice McGee’s talent. He received an offer to work on the network at its base in New York City. From there, he became one of the “most prominent newsmen” on TV.

Mind you, there are no online classes yet back then, but McGee was already known for his incredible skill in descriptive language. He could tell his viewers a clear picture of his topic just by detailing and describing it. McGee was behind some of the most important events in history. He managed to secure an interview with Martin Luther King Jr. after an attempted assassination and covered the early US-manned space flights.
