Mike Amor: What It Takes To Be A Foreign Correspondent

Head Game - En podcast av Nova Podcasts - Tisdagar

Mike Amor was just 13 months into his role U.S. Bureau Chief for 7NEWS when the World Trade Centre came down on September 11. As the only Australian journalist on the ground in New York that day, it fell on his shoulders to keep Australians updated on the tragedy unfolding in the aftermath of that horrific attack.

A seasoned broadcast journalist, Mike has been a fixture of our TV screens for more than two decades. In this episode, he reveals his humble beginnings at a regional newspaper, takes us inside his first major story covering the Port Arthur Massacre, and details the toll being an international correspondent took. From reporting inside war zones, covering natural disasters and school shootings to interviewing celebrities on the red carpet, Mike Amor has done it all. Now he's giving a look behind the lens.
