@ChristianTVArchive I think it was the Peacock fainting dead away, knowing that Chris - a decent journalist at the time - would eventually become a shill at Fox.
Wallace, best journalist/newsman out there in my book in the post Hume era. Far above the rest in Cable as far as quality goes. One of the few guys on cable I trust, period. Not to say he isn't without his biases, but everyone has those.
The hair is still EPIC lol

What wasn't going wrong at that time for the Peacock network during the late-70s to early-80s?

I worked there - and the answer is, "very little!" The only solid program we had was "Overnight" - and they cancelled it!

Yeah, Roger really rocked... I miss the old NBC Nightly News intro from 1981-1983.
