| Info | Mike James is known and recognized throughout the Puget Sound area as a long time lead anchor in local television, as a journalist respected by his peers and the public, as a former state-wide political candidate, and as a leader in service to his community.
Mike began his local journalism career in 1966, at KING Radio, where he wrote and anchored early morning newscasts and covered local events and politics for several years. In 1968, when KING-TV expanded its nightly news program, Mike moved to television journalism.
Mike covered the local government beat for KING-TV, reporting from Seattle City Hall and from the King County Courthouse. He also covered important trials, including the infamous "Seattle 7" trial in Tacoma. From the 1970's into the 1990's, Mike was a familiar face and voice in the Puget Sound area as one of the principal anchors at KINGTV. After a run for U.S. Senate in 1994, Mike returned to television, covering local events and appearing as a weekend anchor on KIRO-TV from January 1995 to July 1999.
In 1999-2000, Mike appeared on national television as a correspondent for the PBS News Hour with Jim Lehrer.
