Anchor vs. reporter

[@maxmulsanne7054]

Back when news anchors and reporters were passionate about their work and would not back down to anybody.

[@Chelaxim]

There's some good investigative reporting out there.

@@maxmulsanne7054 "Not back down to anybody"? Max, there is a difference between being a passionate about the quality of work you do, and just plain being an A-hole to your coworkers in public.

I will never forget this ! I remember it like it was yesterday so happy I came across this video on a random late night KZbin search. I was 20 getting ready in the morning for work and said to myself DAMN did they really just do that on air,yes they did. But leading up to this for years you could just feel the tension between these two. Jim Ryan always made smart ass comments to Oliver on air and any chance he could get he loved humiliating and belittling him. I think old Ollie just had enough of Jim's shit that day ! That being said both are pure nostalgia for New Yorkers who grew up in the 80s-2000's. Every day before school in the mid/ late 80s throughout mid 90s my Mother would have Good Day NY on TV when I woke up and came down stairs in the morning.

[@TheNoiseySpectator]

So, was this "Jim Ryan" that big of an S.O.B. to just anyone, or just Ollie? What was his problem with Ollie?

[@chaliquedesigns4110]

This whole video is hilarious. The building manager vs the tenant (she lives on the first floor 😂)The reporter vs the anchor, Reporter- I was your boss. Anchor - yeah,what happened to that😂😂

[@reeseville1]

Yeah he low key roasted her. Complaining about the elevator when you live on the 1st floor 😅

[@chaliquedesigns4110]

@@reeseville1 Right! 😂 She tried to pretend like she was so concerned about the other residence. And the property managers hand gesture at the end,was hilarious too

[@truthhurts3305]

Not to mention that if you close your eyes you’ll notice that the building contractor sounds like Kermit 😅

[@vanaik]

Her smile at the end

[@simonstevenson6686]

Creepy

[@SamWesting]

Reporter: I was your boss once. Anchor: Yeah, you were and are no longer. How did that happen? (Anchor cuts off reporter) Reporter (off air): Because you slept your way to the top!

Reporter is right How rude is the anchor

[@vanaik]

the reporter is extremely bad but the anchor needlessly escalates it. The two obviously have a history of working together.

[@GWHEATCUBS16]

The reporter is not right

[@TheNoiseySpectator]

@@vanaik From the comments I've read from New Yorkers, this Jim Ryan was an a-hole to most everyone.

[@JasonZakrajsek]

This guy was the inspiration for Herb Welch on SNL.

[@modiabcomedy]

If only Ollie had John Mulaney to write comebacks for him

[@jakez8917]

Now that SNL skit makes sense 🤣🤣🤣

[@daneboca4499]

I’ll admit the super was hilarious

[@tobehonest7541]

OH WOW! Here after SNL - so glad I found the video !

Came here from the SNL sketch based on this.

[@jdcursed4800]

Great back and forth but that “yea u we’re and are no longer how’d that happen” ended it 😭😭😭

[@ELP1125]

The claws came out 😂

[@calvinlong1265]

I know a lot of managers that are unfit. At least this station had enough sense to demote this guy.

[@RayLRhodes]

For all of you asking "Why couldn't he come up with a question?", it's the reporter's job to interview the people involved. It's not his job as an anchor to come up with the questions. It's like a prosecutor asking a judge how to cross-examine somebody.

[@amitypredator9385]

It's also not his job as an anchor, to prod the reporter for more questions. He was being unprofessional. They both were, but he started it.

[@coolcrosscross451]

So he don’t know a question , yet he thinks there is more to know? If you think there is more to know you, you have a question

[@vanaik]

The anchor made it pretty clear that he wants a simple reply from the woman. The reporter was passive aggressive at this point. I understand he doesn't want to be micromanaged but he is acting like his job is just to hold the microphone.

[@amitypredator9385]

@@vanaik as the reporter he asked all the questions he felt needed to be asked. Jim Ryan wanted to know more, then he should have asked specifically what he wanted to know.

[@TheLoneCamper]

Then maybe dipshit anchor should stfu and not try to run the interview

[@cmann517]

Okay 😆, alright 😂. I needed a laugh 🤣🤣🤣

There's two women that host the evening news on Fox 5 that seem to not like one another. They both are very attractive and dress well however the one on the our eft seemed unhappy to work with the one on our right. 😢

[@braveheart996]

Can someone explain what happened?

[@shocbomb23]

It's from the july 2001 Fox 5 Good Day NY morning news show. Jim Ryan the ancor and Dick Oliver is the field reporter. Both of them worked together for years on this morning show and they both always were smart assess to each other and this day it blew up on air

[@hmdave]

Before the pandemic this was the worst thing ever 😮

[@HealthyLifestyleLiving60Plus]

Nobody liked Jim! He challenged everybody! Especially Lynn White... I heard her during a commercial break " I'm sick of your shit Jim"!..They forgot to turn off the microphones. 🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣 After the commercial break Lynn was gone and never returned after that!

[@breakfreak3181]

I strangely want to know so much *more* about that situation now. Where and when it was. Who the tenant was. The beef between Anchor and Reporter. What are they all doing now (if alive). It was just a funny slice of life. The whole thing could've been out if some light comedy drama, lol.

[@shocbomb23]

It from the Fox 5 morning show Good Day NY that aired in July of 2001. The ancor man is Jim Ryan and the reporter is Dick Olliver. I grew up watching them from childhood

[@breakfreak3181]

@shocbomb23 Thanks. I'm from England and so they are not familiar to me.

anchor was right, tenant shouldve been given the time to respond to the building manager's statement

[@nimo517]

Reporter is WRONG. Only bc it’s a woman in a robe!!! Cmon everyone this has to stay on tv if you’re that guy “don’t let her just leave.” “She’s back if you want her” “Yes!” Hahah this is all bc the anchor wanted to see a slip and if we consider that angle, he’s still wrong 😂 but it makes sense..? No?
