Profile: In Conversation With Jeff McMullen (Part 2)

Fourth Estate

The Watergate scandal was already unfolding when Jeff McMullen arrived in the United States in 1972, having just been appointed as the ABC's New York Correspondent.

He would spend the next decade filing compelling stories for Four Corners on the turmoil surrounding nuclear waste, uranium mining and the plight of the Native Americans.

During his years covering the Reagan White House, Jeff made the difficult decision to leave the ABC for the Nine Network's 60 Minutes, at a time when current affairs television was at its peak.

In part two of his conversation with Tina Quinn, Jeff discusses these extraordinary decades and the purpose that still guides him.
