High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Frank McGee (September 12, 1921–April 17, 1974) was an American television journalist. Born in Monroe in Ouachita Parish, Louisiana, and raised in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, McGee began his broadcast news career at WKY-TV (now KFOR-TV) in his hometown. In 1955, the owners of WKY purchased WSFA-TV in Montgomery, Alabama, and sent McGee there as news director. WSFA was an affiliate of NBC. As the civil rights movement gained national coverage, McGee's work came to the notice of NBC, who offered him a position with the network. McGee went on to become "one of television's most prominent newsmen." McGee was a floor correspondent for the political conventions of both parties in 1960, 1964, and 1968. In 1960, he hosted the second debate between presidential candidates John F. Kennedy and Richard Nixon. At that time, the debates were considered by the news media to have swung the election in favor of Kennedy. McGee had a great talent for descriptive language, often giving viewers a vivid word picture of the day's events.
