WUFT - Surprise Pledge Drive - March 1988

WUFT - Surprise Pledge Drive - March 1988. On this Sunday morning, public television station WUFT staged a guerilla pledge drive during a Humphrey Bogart movie marathon. In return for this interruption, WUFT offered viewers... Lauren "Bear"-call and Humphrey "Bear"-gart (see 2:34). The person who originally recorded this tape responded by rage quitting the recording of the film, leaving half of the tape empty... for 36 years. As you might expect, this pledge break was not Closed Captioned for the hearing impaired. For best playback, please click on the gear, then click Quality, and then click "720p60".
