Alex Cameron Biography

Alex Cameron is an American journalist who moved to Oklahoma in 1995 to take a job at News 9 in Oklahoma City as a general assignment reporter. In the years since, Alex has been given a variety of anchoring duties – the morning show, weekends, 4:00 pm, and, most recently, the noon newscast. Throughout it all, however, Alex has continued to do the one thing that first attracted him to the business: report out in the field.

Alex Cameron Education

Alex grew up on the East Coast, living in both Maryland and New Jersey. He attended Bucknell University and the University of Heidelberg in Germany. He later received a master’s in journalism at New York University where his thesis earned him the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences’ prestigious “College Television Award” in 1988.

Alex Cameron Career

Alex has covered everything, from the legislative battles at the Capitol to the challenges facing Oklahoma educators, to the devastating impact of tornadoes and ice storms.

Reporting for NEWS 9 has taken Alex literally around the world: to Bosnia in 1996 to document the brave work of the Oklahoma-based 3rd Herd; to Colorado in 1997 to cover the trial of Timothy McVeigh, and again, in 2001, to report on the OSU plane crash tragedy; to Washington, D.C. in 2005 to report on the last BRAC (base realignment and closure); and to New Orleans and Seattle more recently to follow Oklahoma City’s acquisition of an NBA franchise.

Alex has also put together many stories on local war heroes. He has especially enjoyed profiling some of the state’s World War II veterans (Alex’s father served in Patton’s 3rd Army and fought in the Battle of the Bulge). This reporting earned Alex recognition from the state’s Veterans Administration and led to his participation in the dedication of the USS Oklahoma Memorial at Pearl Harbor in 2007.

Griffin Communications To Open Washington Bureau With Alex Cameron Reporting From DC For News 9/News On 6

Beginning in January, Alex Cameron will be the new Washington Bureau Chief for Griffin Communications and report from Washington D.C. for News 9 in Oklahoma City and News On 6 in Tulsa. Cameron will be the only Oklahoma reporter to office in D.C. where he will produce content specifically for Oklahomans on topics and issues that affect the state and its citizens.

“As Oklahoma’s only locally-owned television stations, we consistently invest in content that other stations do not,” said Todd Spessard, Vice President of Content. “This includes a dedicated State Capitol reporter, an NBA Reporter who travels with the team, an exclusive College Football Analyst – Dusty Dvoracek and now a U.S. Capitol Reporter.”

“It is fitting that we make this announcement on Constitution Day,” said Spessard, “We are not only celebrating our Constitution but are also celebrating the important role that journalism plays in our democracy and our stations’ dedication to empowering our journalists to keep Oklahomans safe, informed and entertained. It’s more important than ever to have a dedicated reporter in the heart of our nation, reporting on our government and its representatives.”

An award-winning journalist, Cameron has been with News 9 since 1995 and has anchored several newscasts while also reporting on stories both large and small. He has also traveled the world covering stories that impact Oklahoma.

“Alex has built a reputation as a fair, trustworthy and investigative journalist in his 20 plus years at News 9,” said Nathan Elliott, Director of Content for News 9. “He is uniquely qualified to take on this new role and provide unique, relevant content for our viewers.”

Cameron has covered many of the biggest stories to impact Oklahomans including the trial of Timothy McVeigh, the Oklahoma State University plane crash tragedy, Base Realignment and Closure, and the Oklahoma City Thunder move to Oklahoma City. Additionally, he is known as the reporter to sit down with for newsmakers – some of his most hard-hitting interviews have included Governor Kevin Stitt, Mayor David Holt, Representative Kendra Horn, former Chesapeake CEO Aubrey McClendon, and former OU Presidents David Boren & James Gallogly.

“Reporting from the nation’s capital has been a lifelong dream for me,” said Cameron. “I can think of no greater honor than to cover our democracy and government for the great people of my home state – Oklahoma. I look forward to hitting the ground running in January covering the second year of this Congress and the upcoming elections.”
