One gets a closet full of stories coming out of spending countless hours in New Mexico’s
legislative-executive building either covering the news or attempting to persuade
politicians to cast a vote in favor of “the little people.”
Here’s my TV News throwback story for this Thursday.
The TV camera had been all set up to film an interview with a legislator. I won’t name the lawmaker because he’s still
serving.
The legislator came into the interview room and quickly took
his a seat in front of a typewriter.
This is a typewriter:
The reporter (not me, and who I won’t identify because he’s still reporting) started the camera.
Reporter : Senator,
thank you for joining me today for this interview.
Senator: It’s been a long time since I’ve been on TV.
Reporter: Regarding
the bill up for discussion, will you support it?
Senator: I
have no comment at this time!
At which time the senator pushed away from the desk and left.
I swear to The Almighty it happened!
