  • That guest was a real trooper. She stayed onpoint, focused and reacted to everything in a really professional fashion.

    Thanks for finding this clip. It's fascinating.

  • God bless Juana. Poor thing was given the worst news possible right on the air. She held up amazingly well. How she did not break down right there is to her credit.

  • one less fudge packer

  • It takes real integrity to tell your viewers to stay tuned to stations that can give them NEWS rather than watch the show they're trying to air... WoW! How much things have changed... they were willing to sacrifice ratings so public can go to nearest best source of info to get latest NEWS...

  • Compare this news w/ bimbos we have on tv now a days... where hoochie momma's given a slot for main show rather than one w/ brain...

  • Wow history right here and Juana back then was a fox and had a nice voice I was 7 months old when this happened and its crazy I never knew about the History of Milk and the mayor until i caught the movie Milk on cable one night,But you could tell that Juana wanted to break down and cry when she heard this news she was a trooper and probably did break down once they got off air.

  • When i first heard about it I thought it was Peoples Temple

  • Bravo! This clip was very refreshing and made me nostalgic for the days when news was actually news. I can't imagine any news organization today that would "wait for confirmation" rather than immediately switching to "coverage" of little more than waiting around and conjecture.

  • What a brilliant upload. Thanks :) 

  • It this happened today you'd get Michael Bay-style edit cuts, overdramatic action-movie music and a bunch of news reporters spending 90 percent of their segments overplaying all the terror and fear they could muster instead of giving the essential information and speculation. God news was so much more level headed in the 70s.

  • This video is so useful in so many ways. Thank you.

  • wow, it's so sad to have to watch her go through that. she was professional the whole way through, but not cold and unfeeling. that was how most people got their news back then, you just parked yourself infront of the tv and learned what was going on along with the broafcasters. this really is a piece of history. thank you.
