About The Museum of Classic Chicago Television:
The MCCTv (FuzzyMemoriesTV) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit whose primary mission is the preservation and display of off-air, early home videotape recordings (70s to early 80s, mostly) recorded off of TV (in Chicago or other cities now too); things which would likely be lost if not sought out and preserved digitally. If you have any old 1970s videotapes recorded off of TV please email: tapes@fuzzy.tv Even though (mostly) short clips are displayed here, we preserve the entire broadcasts in our archives - the complete programs with breaks (or however much is present on the tape), for historical preservation. For information on how to help in our mission, to donate or lend tapes to be converted to digital, please e-mail tapes@fuzzy.tv Thank you for your help!
R.I.P. Bill Jorgensen (1927-2024).
A newscast from the days when they gave unbiased news.
Tom Skilling with a (somewhat) full head of hair!
I see the NewsNine blue background knowing that it's been about 7 months since it became known as The Nine O'Clock News. Overall, another great find and I had an awesome b-day this week.
Was 6 and boy have lots of memories of these news anchors.
Thank you!!!
I was born 3 weeks after this aired in December 1980.
HELLO Generation Xer. LOL
The Dave Johnson at 7:22 is the Dave Johnson who was the track announcer for Belmont Park and other NYRA race tracks in the 1970s as well as the voice of the Triple Crown for ABC Sports in the 1980's and 1990's.
Complete with vintage commercials 😊
This is the day I was born
Steve Stone and Don Zimmer. Both future Cubs legends
no wonder they never won
The opening music heard as the news crews were being introed was called "Action News" composed by Bob Sakayama. It was used by WPIX in New York for their commercial breaks (and apparently WGN-TV) during the era of Action News as well as on Independent Network News. Ironically, PIX11 during that era, used "Move Closer to Your World" as their theme song, most associated with Philly's market leader, ABC O&O WPVI-TV. According to the News Music Search Archive, another station used Bob Sakyama's "Action News", KMSP Minneapolis/St. Paul.
AND...INN's theme song according to News Music Search Archive, was a production music track: "Industrial Power" composed by Johnny Pearson. A few other small market stations back in the day used that.
Didn't KMSP at one time air "INN"?
@@wmbrown6 Yes, and that's when they used that music (circa 1981-1983). I used to hear it in my dreams if I watched it that night.
50:55 the White Sox did get Ron LeFlore and was with the Sox for 2 seasons.
51:10 Dave Winfield as predicted didn't go to the Cubs. He got a big money contract with the Yankees, but he never brought a title to the Bronx when he was there
Mostly because the 80s Yankees pitching sucked
epic a young Tom
And Voyager 1 is still going to this day. Traveling through deep space.
sending fake pictures, glorious!!!
@@zxccxz164- It hasn't transmitted pictures for over 30 years. The last one is known as the "Pale Blue Dot" looking back at Earth from it's long distance away.
And those that it took before that weren't "fake". Nor were the ones by Voyager 2.
Tom Skilling’s brother is that crook, Jeff Skilling. How embarrassing for Tom.
That was a long time ago, the whole Enron thing. It's probably a lot more embarrassing for Jeff, then Tom. Tom dint do nufin.
👍👍👍👍
2 days before I was born
I don't think the guy in the WSJ commercial is Gordon Peterson.
Who could it be then? Certainly looks like Peterson . . . compare with any WTOP/WDVM newscasts on YT to find out.
Agreed... I don't think it looks or sounds like him.
The closing voiceovers (and the one on the station ID at the end) sound like Floyd Brown.
@@tkaye2 - Who would that WSJ guy be, then? Anyone know?
This was broadcast a day after my 15th Bday
