Michael Landsberg (born July 22, 1957) is a Canadian sports journalist. Landsberg started his national career in 1984 as an anchor on TSN's SportsDesk (now known as SportsCentre), broadcasting more than 5,000 episodes. Landsberg has covered Canadian college football, horse racing, and figure skating at the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary. He also hosted the network's highly acclaimed coverage of the Dubin inquiry. He received his own show on the network, Off The Record, in 1997, which is a talk show on current sports news.
In the CBC comedy program Royal Canadian Air Farce, Landsberg is satirized as a self-obsessed host, who often pulls out a mirror to look at himself while throwing darts at a map of Palestine.

He chose to surgically remove his scrotum on December 29, 2012. [1]
