Examples of mic in a Sentence

  1. Jesse Watters:

    I’ve done this dozens and dozens of times and ambushed people. I’ve never done The Five to a regular person outside of their house, the guy can go to someone’s house with a camera and a mic, that’s fine. … His tone was so wrong and accusatory.

  2. Pete Snyder:

    If you don't know the question, you can just pretend like your mic doesn't work.

  3. Rachel Lindsay:

    He wasn’t defending Rachael, he repeated over and over during the 15-minute segment in which he essentially did just that. If I had gone to that party, I asked him, what wouldIrepresent? He told me that 50 million people had attended a party like this, i maintained that attending such a party was not a good look, to which he responded, ‘Is it not a good look in 2018, or is it not a good look in 2021?’ As if things couldn’t have been considered racist in 2018. He called for sympathy for ‘this poor girl, Rachael.’ He said all this with a passion I had never seen him assert. And neither, I think, had America. We had only seen Chris Harrison perform as a host; this was like catching him with a hot mic.

  4. Dan Gainor:

There were no news stories about Trump's off-color and crude comments. It did everything it could to protect him -- both in news and entertainment. He, and indirectly Billy Bush, became targets because he ran a political campaign wildly opposed by network reporters, producers and anchors … If you are liberal, it won't likely impact you for long. If you are to the right of the media covering the story, it will haunt you forever.

  5. Johnny Weir:

    They are turning my mic off during the actual performances, so maybe I can sing a along.
