Dr Richard Besser, formerly of the Centers of Disease Control, is ABC's in-house physician and is learning to play a journalist on TV.
Who? What? When? Where? Why? should be his next lesson.
Monday he filed a story about a girl with a magnetized prosthetic leg that grows as she grows. He did not tell us where the girl comes from nor where Stanmore Implants, which makes the leg, is from. Now Besser tells us that stem cells from the cornea can be regrown to restore the sight of those who have been accidentally blinded. Who is the blind person? Unidentified. When was sight restored? No timeline. Where did it happen? "In a laboratory."
In both stories, Dr Besser's field reporting consisted of interviewing a European-accented scientist on Skype.
Richard Besser is the most refreshing change in morning and evening news. He tells it like it is without pandering to any group and avoids the 30 pounds in 30 days type of reporting on the other networks....In one word....he is believable!
