Micheal Mahoney Announces KMBC Retirement

He's one of the few people we admire here at TKC but we want to mark this career milestone with something better than all of the social media chatter . . .

To start, we share a photo that we took of the Kansas City journalist not so long ago . . . Maybe 10 years . . .

A bit about his storied career . . .

Mahoney joined KMBC in 1980 as a feature reporter. His hard work and ability to own every story led him to other assignments, and eventually to his favorite: Politics. He covered everything from local municipal races to presidential elections. He has covered every American president since Jimmy Carter, was on a first-name basis with George W. Bush and was on a last-name basis with President Joe Biden who once greeted Micheal with: “I’m Joseph R. Biden. You’re Mister Mahoney. Happy Saint Patrick’s Day.”

Late night readers are welcomed to leave a nice comment for a local reporter who ranks amongst Kansas City's very best.
