  • Julian Kanter, founder of the Political Commercial Archive and political strategist Douglas L. Bailey discuss the impact that television has had on the American political process in this rare episode of The Phil Donahue Show from 1980.
    From the Marion Stokes Archive. Shared for historical purposes. I do not own the rights.
    In 1950, Julian P. Kanter started work in the television industry. From his time working in television, Kanter observed that most political ads were thrown away after their election cycles had ended because the candidates' campaigns often didn't ask for them back. Thus in 1956, Kanter, believing the ads were of historical importance, created a private archive from the 1952 and 1956 presidential elections.[2] By 1983, the University of Oklahoma's communications department made space for the political communication center in Kaufmen Hall. In 1985, the University of Oklahoma and the Smithsonian Institute competed to purchase Kanter's archive, which at this point contained over 25,000 commercials. Eventually, the University of Oklahoma won out with a bid of $250,000 in special appropriations.Though money was part of his decision, other reasons that Kanter cited were that he liked the idea of a multi-disciplinary facility working in political communication. Another reason was that the University of Oklahoma offered to make him curator of the archive and made him an adjunct professor of political communication; contributing to education was something he'd always wanted. Mr. Kanter served as the archive's curator for ten years. Kanter died on December 5, 2011. - wikipedia

    great upload! The guests seem more genuine and honest and the audience much smarter than anyone interviewed today. May I suggest adding The Phil Donahue Show in the title?

    The way Nick Belluso's name popped up seems like it was taken from the Al Franken bit on SNL. But at least it worked (barely) when Al ran for office!

    If she was offended by HW's ad at 15:00, wonder what she thought of the Willie Horton ads...

    Do you have Phil Donahue's "Blondes have more fun" episode or the cast of "Empty Nest" show. I was on that show with my grandmother and would love to see them again. Thank you ☺️👍🏼❗

    Very interesting. Thanks for posting this. Wow, that white supremacy candidate! I can’t believe they put that on TV! Then again we have a racist president right now so not much has changed.
    A little interesting fact:
    A lot of people don’t realize Ike was 1/4 African American. His mother was half Africa American.
