Awards Daily Exclusive Clip: Mike Wallace Is Here

In this exclusive clip, reporter, Mike Wallace sits down with Oprah. He talks to her about her prep style and why she doesn’t have a script or questions. “I think that I am a surrogate viewer. I feel so connected to the women who are out there watching.” She tells Wallace.

The clip comes from the brand new documentary, Mike Wallace is Here and offers an unflinching look at the legendary reporter, who interrogated the 20th century’s biggest figures in his over fifty years on air, and his aggressive reporting style and showmanship that redefined what America came to expect from broadcasters. Unearthing decades of never-before-seen footage from the 60 Minutes vault, the film explores what drove and plagued Wallace, whose storied career was entwined with the evolution of journalism itself.
