  • ABC supported closed captioning from the beginning. I have some tapes from early 1980 that have a test running on the caption channels, before they started using them.

  • This was before tv manufacturers begin installing close caption option in the television sets.

  • In Poland public TV, we have capitions for hearing impaired in teletext. It's made that most of page is transparent, but not some bottom lines.

  • This intro was used from 1982 to around 1986.

  • This became as common as the "flash PSA" Ernie Anderson delivered at the end of most shows on the network: "Don't Drink and Drive- a public service message from ABC".
