A series of several commercials (horribly corny) as broadcast on Detroit's WDIV Channel 4 in Oct 1982.

  • Sorry; I think the teachers' strike was actually in 1982. I think...because I remember reporting to Mrs. Peart's 8th grade math class first (which was actually "5th hour" at Munger Middle School) at about 12:45PM first, the day the strike was declared over and "back to school" for us. Tragic thing was, whilst the strike was going on, school was in fact closed (for us) the first few days into the projected school year.

  • My family was Democrat, but Proposal D had a negative effect on just about everyone. "Tent City" (on the WDIV News at 11 teaser) reminds me of the OWS protests...nothing new about squatters. I remember the teachers' strike in '81 in 7th grade when we were watching the Noon newscast and Bob Bennett reporting the strike over, and my sister and I had 20 minutes to get to school for about 2 hours that day! NBC's peacock logo still had 11 feathers on it.

  • Awesome trip down memory lane....

    Thanks!

  • That Dristan really does penetrate.

  • Sunday, October 24, 1982.

  • Was every male in '82 white and going bald with giant glasses ?

  • @thechazman100 It's here on YT, just do a search for Ray Whitfield Ford.

  • @haujimm This was a few years after a serial child killer (who has still never been positively identified) had terrorized Oakland County. Bobby Ogg's death led a lot of people at the time to believe another string of child murders was in the offing.

    Diane Ogg wouldn't be convicted until 1992, when she was sentenced to Murder Two and given 10-25 years. She was paroled in September '08.
