*★★★★* NBC NEWS ELECTION YEAR ’64 CONVENTION COVERAGE ON RADIO DEMANDS FAST PACE, SAY NBC NEWSMEN HACKES AND BEATTY NBC CONVENTION CENTRAL, ATLANTIC CITY, Aug. 2 6 - One advantage of covering a national political convention as an anchorman for radio rather than for TV, according to NBC News correspondent Peter Hackes, is that you can work with your tie off. "There are times when I have my shoes off, too," says Hackes "But come to think of it, maybe Huntley and Brinkley work with theirs off, too." Hackes is one of NBC News1 two radio anchor men for its coverage of the Democratic national convention in Atlantic City. The other is Russ Ward. Being an anchor man on radio convention coverage is much tougher than TV, though, says Hackes. "You have to describe everything from demonstrations to decorations. How many different ways can you describe a demonstration It’s a constant challenge to think of different words. It’s much more exhausting than TV. You have to think of new descriptive words all the time. All Huntley and Brinkley have to say is, ’look at the hall, and there it is." NBC News correspondent Morgan Beatty, who is a convention analyst for radio convention coverage, also has some thoughts about Huntley and Brinkley. (more)
