Thank you for posting this. It seems like something small, but keeping and sharing this historic broadcast from the days of our youth is important , just as much as history books in school are, yet better.
I interned at News 8 in the summer of 2001 (the 2nd Michael Tuck era). He showed me a photo on his bookshelf of a newsroom staff photo in 1981. Mostly the same people as here. That cute Bronco woman has seen her team play in seven super bowls since this night 😉
Looking at it in slow motion, it appears to be a chrome-colored prop, possibly pre-recorded or claymated then superimposed to the live feed. There's slight smudging/fingerprinting on the surface. It's like how the 1983 HBO Theatre bumper used a model "HBO"
How do you search for Andy, Maria and mother today, from 1978-79? It would be amazing to show them or see what they have become today. Any inquires....
Oue beloved Ted Sports writer. Being a San Diego Native ive learned if your not a sports professional or a person of high status IE. Actoor/Actress. High level politics. He won't give you the time or day of having a conversation with you. .
Hate to break it to you but the NFL teams share profits, therefore there is no real incentive for team owners to win the superbowl. Besides we all know the NFL is an entertainment corporation, all games are decided by dudes in suits.
I love seeing perfectly preserved stuff like this, thank you for posting it :)
I love this! Thank you for uploading. I wish the news was done like this today, it feels so soulless now.
My family loved Ted Leitner!

Every piece of history has a value
It's like a Time Machine. Very cool.

That first news report about the wreck is like a opening scene right out of CHiPs. Was waiting for the CHiPs theme to start playing.
Monday, December 17, 1979.
45 years ago today.
Wait! That News Eight logo from 1979 in that opening was already in CGI and 3D? I can't believe it!

A full hour of local news!! Wow.
There wasn't a 6:30 pm newscast after Cronkite back then...
I looked it up, Chargers won 17-7

A Pittsburgh native here, guess which teams won the World Series AND Super Bowl in January 1980? Yeah. You know it.
PATRIOTS & RED SOX!?! 😋
22:48 San Diego....CHARGERS!
That song is an EAR WORM. XD
Where's Ron Burgundy?
You didn’t see him? He’s right there at the beginning
I remember going to the blood drive every year until 1987, after 1986 the blood drive was not the same
Wow! 1979? All that I have experienced since then.

Cool memories. Non bias network journalism before it became activism.

Denver Lost
I don't understand why all the old time news.
I'll answer your question with a question... "why do you watch anything on tv or movies"??
Hate to break it to you Charger fans, but as of 2024 you haven't won a single Superbowl.
Incompetent owners
