Best Reporter Tag TeamMicheal Mahoney, KMBC Channel 9, and Dave Helling, The Kansas City Star
Press conferences can be tedious affairs, with government officials leaning on the crutches of their prepared remarks while obligatory cameras roll. But even the biggest yawners can turn entertaining whenever bloodthirsty newshounds Micheal Mahoney and Dave Helling show up. Channel 9's Mahoney and the Star's Helling form an unofficial tag team, feeding off each other and escalating the intensity of their queries until they get real answers. Planned Parenthood CEO Peter Brownlie gets the same ruthless grilling as Johnson County District Attorney Phill Kline when Helling and Mahoney play interrogators. Politicians squirm. CEOs crack. No one gets a pass.
