I'll guess that I'm several months older than you. That said, back in the 70s WABC TV pioneered in the concept of "happy news". The 6 O'clock news was anchored by Roger Grimbsy and Bill Beutel.It tried to put a light hearted spin on the stories of the day. The concept worked. Ratings went thru the roof. It all came crashing down when weatherman Tex Antoine made a lighthearted comment about how women should react while being raped. He was fired before the show was over & happy news suddenly got serious. |
