Elex Michaelson is the main evening anchor at Fox11 Los Angeles and a veteran journalist in the nation's 2nd-largest TV market.

We discuss how he accidentally ended up covering Lamar Odom's overdose in Las Vegas, his recent one-on-one interview with Kim Kardashian, how he approaches questioning President Donald Trump, and some of the amazing "pay it forward" stories he's helped facilitate in southern California.

Elex hosts "The Issue Is" on Fox11 Friday nights at 10:30 and on Fox2 San Francisco at 6:30 a.m. Saturday mornings.
