MMJ Problems

MMJ's know hard it is to shoot a stand up by yourself and make sure it looks good. 

But, this just isn't a problem for Today's MMJ's.... let's go back 30 years ago. 

Brett Wagner was a Reporter for WFMZ in Allentown, Pa, and he desperately wanted to cover Union negotiations regarding Mack Trucks, located in Allentown, Pa at the time.

The talks were taking place in St. Louis and his station refused to send both Wagner and a Photog to St. Louis to cover the story.

He pushed further and said he could stay with his mom and take a VHS camera (Google it kids) and the station decided to let him go. 

This is a clip of him trying to shoot a stand up with his elderly mother, with bad eyes, working as his Photographer. 

Watch as he berates his mother for not understanding what to do.

Yep, 30 years later, TV news hasn't changed.
