Q&A with Ben Briscoe
What's your favorite story you've done?
Early on, I did an investigation about a medical examiner who lied on his resume and in testimony at trials. My piece was picked up nationally and two innocent people were set free from murder charges because of what we uncovered. That solidified my love for investigative reporting. I instantly knew this was the right career for me.
What's your biggest pet peeve?
People who complain about something but won't take action to change things.
What are your hobbies?
My favorite way to spend a day is wandering around town exploring new places. That's especially true if my greyhound, George, and my finance can tag along for a nice stroll outside.
If you weren't on television news, what would you do for a living?
I'd be a reality TV show writer. Someone has to piece together all that drama!
