It's hard to imagine, but back in that era long-time baseball guys like Campanis were essentially sacred cows - guys who spent as much as a half century in a single franchise's organization. Campanis didn't have someone from the Dodger organization step in because the Dodgers didn't *have* anyone to step in, nor did any other pro sports franchise. It was only after this interview that pro sports leagues and franchises realized that having an in-house PR/communications staff was necessary.

I remember watching this interview back in the day. At first, I thought he was doing a bit. He had that silly look on his face so it came across as a failed attempt at humor. Once it dawned on me that he was being serious, I realized he just set race relations back 40 years. And it was stupefying that this was coming from a Dodger executive. The Dodgers always seemed to be at the forefront of offering minority ballplayers opportunities.

Ted Koppel has always made an effort to challenge people's prejudices and bigotry. He seems to also make efforts to challenge his own. I think that's the only way forward through all of this. White people need to acknowledge and take accountability for our past. Whether or not we actively act on our biases, they exist, and self introspection is the best way. If we lift each other up, we all do better.

Nothing I haven’t heard the WWII generation say before. Realize that Al campanis would be around 100 years old in 2021. There was no “politically correct” way for people to talk on camera that weren’t politicians. Campanis was born into and raised during a completely segregated era in virtually all aspects of America. Ignorance does not equal hate. My long since passed grandmother was born in 1919, on a farm in the middle of nowhere. She never had interaction with black people until she was an adult. All she knew was what she was taught. She was NOT taught to be racist but she understood there were differences between white and black. She didn’t fear black people for being black. She feared no one for being different than her. However, this tiny little white old lady referred to black people often times as colored. Why? Was she being racist? Or was it something she thought was appropriate since that’s what she saw written and heard said everywhere? Later in her life she moved to a big city. Had people of different races living all around her. She still used the term colored. No one that ever heard her say that would have ever accused her of being racist. She sat on the stoop in the summer everyday talking with her neighbor, who was black. They were almost inseparable for 20 years. Went to church together, went to funerals together. Hitler was racist. Al campanis was not intelligent enough to understand that some things you are taught in your environment as a kid, are wrong. If you’ve been taught that way for the first 20 years of your life, it’s almost impossible to know you’re wrong and even more so to change yourself. Maybe he had an easy ness to his apparent prejudices that allowed him to speak about it without ever realizing how it sounds. This is not an excuse for the dodgers having him in the position he was in. I hear less anger towards them than him. Shouldn’t the dodgers have known he wasn’t fit for the job as far as sensitivity is concerned? We should try to understand, subtext here is not stupidity. It’s ignorance. Uneducated people are all around you. It does not make them stupid. We are all products of our environment. If somehow you read all this, thanks. Non of my comments are meant to offend, but rather understand what someone is saying and why. It’s only my opinion. In the end there are things that we ALL say and have heard said that we would never say in public. And if you claim not to have ever done that, you were born a deaf mute.

All due respect, but that kind of reasoning is never acceptable. Lyndon B. Johnson was a part of the "group" of which you speak. He was responsible for the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Voting Rights Act of 1965, and the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968. He grew up in bigoted Texas. It was all he knew. Even as he served his country in creating these legislative efforts; he still frequently used the language of his raising. Our conditioning isn't easy to shake, but that doesn't mean it can't be overcome. Don't make excuses and use rationales for miss poor thinking and behavior. That allows people to remain static rather than evolve. The human brain is a gift. All we have to do is use it. Think.

It does make sense in a way. Humans don't have perfect knowledge. Explaining societal results is complicated. Blacks didn't even have the right to vote a few decades before this interview, nor could they marry whites. There may have even been some states right around this time that still forbid it. It certainly wasn't legal for gays to be married. Most would argue today that the most athletic players that have ever played basketball or football are black. There is a real argument unfortunately, that slavery had a role in developing some black people with certain physical features and characteristics. The idea that black people might not be able to float as well as white people is not a far cry from the ideas of slavery, right to vote, segregation, etc. Society evolves, as does understanding of reality.

I remember just being stunned upon hearing Al Campanis' (matter of fact) racist views when this conversation aired on Nightline that evening. It just wasn't openly expressed-not that it didn't exist of course. People with such demented beliefs generally kept it to themselves (even when interviewed by the media). I was in my late twenties back then... I'm now in my mid 60s, and I no less shocked by it today. Why? Because individuals like Campanis weren't known to be hard core racists. Yet, their upbringing and level of ignorance is rooted so strong that it interferes with the core critical thinking and true progress in this country. I often wonder what Campanis (and others like him who seemingly-in their mind at least meant well) have to say about the level (or lack) of progress still emulating in the world of sports business.

You gotta give it to Al Campanis. Even at 19 minutes, he mentions that blacks are fleet of foot as to why there are 1/3 of current players being black. I saw this live and yes it was shocking. Campanis was a victim of his time with his thoughts on the Faculties and Buoyancy of Black athletes. And 40 years later, how much has changed? This was an historic segment.

Al Campanis was a progressive forward-thinking guy for the 1940s, rooming with a Black man, but he looked like an antiquated bigot by the 1980s. This happened frequently to people that were thought of as "liberals" and progressives before 1975 or 1980, only to be just absolutely out of touch in the 80s, 90s and 2000s. Dick Cavett comes to mind, very liberal media guy in the 1960s and 70s when it came to race/ethnicity but looked like an old out of touch White man by 1984, 1986. The comments about Black peoples physical attributes although frowned upon by educated news media people in the 80s like Ted Koppel, compared to say the same news people of the 1940s and 50s that would have looked the other way, were still very pervasive in the 80s, 90s and 2000s with people on the ground, everyday on the streets, even from people much younger than Al Campanis....i.e., that Blacks weren't good swimmers due to body fat, don't have mental capabilities to be managers, etc, etc...I would read/hear this stuff on the old AOL chat rooms in the late 90s/early 2000s.

Campanis was white, rich, and privileged. However, Campanis didn't have the "necessities" to answer Kopel's questions in a manner that didn't reflect his discriminatory ideology. Sadly the heirs of Campanis and other former white, rich, and privileged baseball executives are running MLB today. The executives in MLB today are the fruit from which the trees have bared. As a result, little has changed with only two black managers and zero black general mangers. Therefore, you must plant a different variety of trees if you want to produce a different fruit. That's easier said than done when the white, rich, and privileged have access to all of the seeds and are still planting all of the trees.

lollll good point! Although I thought the buoyancy comment was in and of itself mostly harmless. Does it really matter if someone is more buoyant than someone else? And supposing a race of people really is more buoyant than another race of people, does that make one better than the other? lollll. I suppose my point is that Campanis here isn't expressing any genuine animus or malevolence toward black people. In fact, after his firing many people came out and vouched for him, including Harry Edwards, the man MLB hired in the wake of this scandal. We shouldn't cancel ignorant people, but rather educate them.

I'm going to defend this man. Having written that, I know that a number of people will immediately dismiss everything I have to say and call me a racist right out of the gate. They're wrong, but I won't convince them of that. Was Campanis racist? Yes. Was he a decent man? By all reports, yes. How can those two things be true at the same time? Simple. Campanis was ignorant. This interview was 35 years ago. Campanis was born in 1916. His formative years were the 1930s - nearly 100 years ago. He essentially inherited his racism. He was a creature of his time - lots of basically good men had inherited biases at that time - they had been brought up being told this silly stuff. The fact that he was unable to adjust his thinking to come into step with the 1980s was indeed his own failing, and he paid for it with his career. But this was not a man who'd be out there burning a cross or wearing a sheet. By the way, Campanis's racism was of the same kind as those who say "there'll never be another white heavyweight champion" or "white men can't jump." It's the very same racism, and it's even more prevalent and acceptable today in the black community than in the white.
