Wow, so it was raising of the Tax's that pushed the steel plant to close. Not over seas jobs as we were told growing up ( I was only one years old in 1982).
Man, what I wouldn't give to have a clean and clear full copy of that local news theme.
It was also used for the 1982-1993 era of ATV(now CTV Atlantic) Evening News and Live At 5 current affairs newscasts in the Maritime Provinces of Canada. =)
The plant would basically close by the end of 1982. Now it's tons and tons and tons of empty, basically burned out buildings. 82 was the last year Erie County had 1 million people
I have been looking for this open for a long time. Thanks for posting- incidently, Carol Jasen retired from buffalo TV and moved to New Mexico with new hubby Craig Negrie - sorry for the spelling.
mmm Chi Chi's remember it well

Bob Koop died in 1995 of Leukema and he was a great news broadcaster.

Nice job! tax and spend everything and everyone out of the city and the state. Good job, cause there aren't other places to go.

Bob Koop was great. It's a shame he's gone...but not forgotten. But what ever happened to Carol Jasen?

I did some research on the news story that's here. March of 1983, the plant closed and 7300 jobs were lost along with 60% of the tax base.

I remember the Chi Chi's commercials! 4003 Maple Road is now an Ihop. Check out Google maps.
