An Interview with Journalist Steve Hartman Changed NFL Player Malcom Mitchell’s Life

Award-winning journalist Steve Hartman’s interview with former NFL Player Malcom Mitchell on CBS Evening News in 2014 changed the course his life. After exposing struggles with literacy, the sit-down inspired Malcolm to work on his reading. He has since founded a non-profit, Share the Magic Foundation, with a mission to transform the lives of children through literacy.

"That came natural. I had to work to read." Dude is a legend.

so damn true!!!!

How to leave Steve Hartman speechless. When Malcom said, " Playing football was a gift. That came natural. I had to WORK to learn how to read." I felt that all the way down to the inside of my toenails! Super Soul!! Sometimes football makes great men. And sometimes great men just happen to play football. AMEN!!

[@blueturtle1719]

Malcom- What a man of character. I love how he pursued reading even though it was not easy for him. He is a great example to young kids and to everyone else of all ages. Thank you Steve Hartman for another great story!

Steve Hartman is an American treasure, in the spirit of Paul Harvey. There is good, and Steve reminds us of that! Also, Go Dawgs!

He's the only good thing to come from CBS. He's amazing.

[@bildfluss]

@@jmr9735 he is a world treasure and I am glad the KZbin Algorithmen has introduced him to me ( a dude in Germany) years ago. What kind of channel is CBS? Is the rest not good?

[@jmr9735]

@@bildfluss CBS is one of our major networks in the US, and their news division, if you can call it that, is a liberal mouthpiece. They're part of the "mainstream media." They do what they can to promote certain narratives and prevent the truth from getting out.

[@fashiondiva6972]

I loved this story when it first aired and love Steve for his gentle, good nature and ability to bring out the good in others when the world needs it most. And I love this young man, his heart and his dedication to expanding his world and now helping others do the same. He’s brilliant for recognizing that he needed knowledge most of all to go far in this life. Because no matter what happens, no one can ever take it from you. I hope only good things are in his future. And for Steve as well.

To angl76 thank you for your comment. You are absolutely correct. Steve Hartman is the greatest.

Perhaps Steve Hartman had an outstanding mentor. His predecessor Charles Kuralt who was best known for his "On the Road" stories. Many long time viewers of the CBS Evening News remember him.

The look in Malcolm’s eye when he talks about his athletic ability being a gift, and how he had to work to read..... powerful. As a UGA alum, I have never been prouder to be associated with a man of that character than I was then.

They called him a "nerd" and he considered it a badge of honor. Truly amazing! God bless.

[@yonatzimmerman577]

I cried tears of joy and sorrow.I taught children who had difficulties with processing of sounds,which eventually hampered their ability to read.I trained in various methods, and found a great deal of joy and gratification,as each child made progress!It made my day ,my week ,my month,my life!

[@bcd4562]

Dear Tamron and Steve and producers, thank you for considering this important, because it is. This was beautiful.

[@user-vm5ud4xw6n]

Wow! What an inspiring young man! Steve doesn’t give himself enough credit. The true mark of a humble person. Any time I come across a Steve video I send it to my sisters in Philly. My fav was the one about the Gold Star kid! Every time I watch it I tear up! I don’t even watch the news. I never miss Steve!! I also loved the story about Malcom. I love reading myself so it meant a lot to me. To think that this young man was so inspired to improve his reading, that he understood the value of it is a tremendous influence for others and especially children who might see him. I am just blown away that he decided to write children’s books! It’s so exciting to hear when someone appreciates the value of books and reading in general. I bet those women just dote on him! We women do like to mother!

[@micheledimond]

[@paulaburnett5587]

Thank you Steve, for inspiring Malcolm to keep going with his reading. This young man writing his book will inspire other young people to read. It’s one of the most important things we can do for our children. Too many youngsters failed reading and they try to hide behind this by disrupting class so no one will find out. Malcolm keep helping young people read. And if reading means you’re a nerd. Sign me up. I’m a nerd as well💕

[@jsjj]

Some of your biggest enemies in life are your peers. Kudos to Malcolm for looking beyond the nerd label and enriching his life while giving hope to so many more.

I look forward to watching Steve Hartman every Fri. He's the icing on the cake for CBS Evening News! IMHO he deserves a segment, monthly or weekly, on 60 Minutes. The stories he shares are just as important, if not more so in today's environment, as those of the other 60 min. contributors. & Malcolm's story is the perfect example of why Steve Hartman is so important to all of us today.
