  • I do wish the Atlanta stations would go back to this clean style of production. You don't have bugs and logos and flashy graphics all over the freaking screen. You have NEWS.

  • @applesauce2100 Yes, I know. It seems like the media feels like they have to treat us like a bunch if infants. Drawing us in with bright, shiny, flashy graphics.

  • wes sarginson is a bag of shit! he is very prurient. he once showed a naked photo of murder victim yvonee clardy on the air. he is into that kind of stuff a well as panty S & M this semi illirterate crap made more money than the TV news producer he is not an American but a lousy english immigrant

  • WOW, 30 years ago. Fuck I'm getting old.

  • This was thorough as hell!! They knew it was Wayne Williams!!! It was too premature though...They actually chose a respectable black woman to talk to! So much has changed in our society.

    

  • @scason. The stations started to get competitive around 1982 when cable really came in with CNN.

  • @scason news was news back in the day...more of a serious presentation. look at headline news now and remember it from back in the day. everything is NOT breaking news (hln)...it's like a joke

  • Wes Sarginson, Mark Pickard and Johnny Beckman would eventually join rival station WXIA "11Ailve". Out of those three, Wes and Johnny are retired today and Mark is still with 11Ailve as a reporter.

  • This was long before DNA evidence.Does anyone think they'll rexamine this case with DNA?

  • @scason You know that not going to happened, because yes the screen clutter with bugs and crawls, but this is the 21st century style of news and graphics and the flashy is to draw you in, and those days of yester year are over....
