Anthony Amey
Anthony Amey joined WSB-TV Channel 2 in January, 2010.
A native of Washington, D.C., Anthony knew at a very early age that he wanted to be holding the microphone and asking the tough questions. He co-hosted a D.C. Public Schools cable television show in high school and began interning at Washington's WTTG, at age 17, prior to his senior year at Paul Laurence Dunbar High School.
After enjoying a 5-year work-study internship at the station, Anthony graduated from Hampton University in 1998 and immediately began his on-air career at WDAM-TV in Hattiesburg, Mississippi.
Since then, he has made stops at Mobile, Ala., Sacramento, Ca., ESPN, and back home in Washington.
Anthony won the 2010 NATAS Emmy for best one-time sports program for the Falcons-Saints Monday Night Football Pregame Show.
Anthony is the proud father of two sons, Ahman and Aaron.

If "Show-Me" guys show their stuff, Falcons could be special in 2013
On Day 3 of NFL free agency, the Falcons landed arguably their biggest free agent catch since signing Michael Turner away from the San Diego Chargers in 2008. (Remember, they traded for Tony Gonzalez in 2009 and Asante Samuel in 2012, so neither of them were considered free agents.) They ...
A whole lot can change in less than a decade ... especially for the Falcons

Now things are about to heat up for the Falcons
I hope Matt Ryan is prepared for two to three times the number of microphones and tape recorders surrounding him in this picture, because they're coming. The attention, the respect, the questions, the pressure: They're all coming if the Falcons continue to win. This week, the 8-0 Falcons continued to ...

There's a special feeling around these Falcons
Too often in life we recognize the significance of a moment only in retrospect. Once we look back, we enjoy what was. So is it possible to see greatness before it happens? I ask, because there is a certain feeling in Flowery Branch. Is it a buzz? Is it just ...
Superman should have known better
"Look where we are. We're in a great position." Those were Dwight Howard's words on March 15, in Orlando, Fla., shortly after signing away his ability to become a free agent this summer. Now, Howard wishes his position were anything but the one he finds himself in. However, the unfortunate ...
Will Ferry actually find a taker for Joe Johnson (and his contract)?
I've heard so many of you complain over the last two years about Joe Johnson's contract. Well, there's a chance it could be Jay-Z's problem in the not-too-distant future. Yahoo!

Why are we so hypocritical when it comes to LeBron James?
How long will it take you to forgive him? "Not one ... not two ... not three ..." as LeBron James infamously said in July 2010. How many years will it take you to forgive someone for mistakes they made at age 25? How many mistakes and ...
