Refreshing to see a news broadcast that doesn't waste 3 minutes at the beginning telling what they're going to tell you in the show and wasting more time going into each break telling you again what they're going to tell you.
I was the Class of '84, and the report here was true. There were so many conservatives on my campus then. There was definitely a shift to right then.
seeing this old video, and others like it... I'M A 1980's CHILD AGAIN!!! LOL
Great ABC News program from 1981 was my favorite.
MARSHALL FIELDS 😭😭❤️

My brother only had one year and 20 days to live before he killed himself and his youngest daughter.
