tvnewsjunkie 7 Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Seems like a silly question but I've always wondered. On both the morning and evening shows the reporters/ correspondents seem to have clip on microphones on their jacket rather than holding a mic stick. Is there any reason for this?

BehindNYNews 147 Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 It looks more professional. I prefer it and wish local stations would start doing the same. I know WABC usually has a reporter at 11pm go with a clip on mic rather than hand held.

10Viewer 334 Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 I believe ABC used to use hand helds back in the 60s and 70s.
