4:49--Jackie Gleason died of cancer at 71 on June 24, 1987. In 1978, he was appearing in a Chicago stage production of the Larry Gelbart play "Sly Fox" when Gleason experienced chest pains. That's why he was hospitalized in Chicago. Michael Reese Hospital in Chicago, where Gleason underwent heart surgery, closed in 2009.
The State Street Mall concept turned out to be a debacle. It no longer exists.
Bruce Robert's was a legendary Chicago sportscaster who died three years after this broadcast, in the WBBM studios. He had a massive heart attack while at work. He was 53.
Wow; news graphics have come a LONG way since then!

30:20 The German beer brewed in Texas was Lowenbrau, which was licensed to Miller in the U.S. and is no longer sold here. Now Anheuser-Busch has moved the Belgian Stella Artois to stateside production.

John Drummond was to Channel 2 as Hugh Hill was to Channel 7: Top-notch reporter and underrated anchor that looked older than he was.
Arson cases up 182%, 44 deaths in 1976? Bloody Hell!
Aw, man! I want to see Gene Siskel review "Omen II"
My Uncle Slugged Harry Volkman in mister Doughnut in Morton Grove in the late 70s, I saw him on the news the next day with a bandage over his eye, that is how i believed his story at the time, what a world
Even for a New York TV viewer like myself, it's great to hear the classic Dick Marx theme (used by 'BBM's sister station WCBS-TV in some form or another in the early 1980's. Though in 1978 they used Bob Sakayama's "Channel 2 News.")

Mr. Sakayama's music - was that the synthesized stuff? (I heard his name also connected with the bumper music used in the late 1970's and early '80's for WPIX's "Action News.") And what was the "other" music WCBS used, from 1979 to 1981 or '82, which was along the lines of Marx', in terms of who composed it?

The Dallas/Fort Worth station is KTVT, formerly an independent, while the Miami station is WFOR, which swapped channels with NBC's WTVJ in the CBS-Westinghouse merger. KFOR is the NBC affiliate in Oklahoma City, owned by Nexstar. KVTV was the former CBS affiliate in Laredo, Texas, long a satellite of KZTV Corpus Christi.
25:04--I remember the Tab soft drink commercial with Willie Mays. He's 90 as I type this on Oct. 7, 2021; he would've been about 46 when he filmed the commercial.
