Shows the tight editorial and technical teamwork responsible for a local television news program. Depicts reporters interviewing actor Burt Reynolds and actress Dyan Cannon, examining the effects of an emergency water main break and covering a massive demonstration on Park Avenue. Features WABC anchorman Roger Grimsby, reporters Bill Beutel, Geraldo Rivera, Robert Labe, and Melba Tolliver.
These were the glory days of WABC. Definitely worth watching to see how local TV news was created in the early 1970s, and how different things were back then.
Plus, come on, Geraldo AND Burt Reynolds? How can you say no?
