"World Markets are Up This Morning" Wasn't this during the scare of 87 regarding the economy? Look what's happening now!

Thats my birthday!. Just like 7 years ahead of time!

I would prefer Steve Bell and Kathleen Sullivan reports on this broadcast.. They were the face of this broadcast.

Do you have the complete edition of this program? If you have, please uploading it! Thanks.

I miss the WNTM theme music. I know they'd dropped it two years ago but it's not the same without it.

Oh, I was aware of that.

With the voice of the original "...This Morning" announcer, Bill Owen. (Barbara Korsen didn't assume V/O duties for the newscast, which she does to this day, until after Mr. Owen left ABC in 1990.)

He seems to be the same from the earlier ABC opening on my WPRI-12 bit...

He sure was, indeed, he'd been with the program from its 1982 debut until 1990.

It now looks like there is a disagreement on that so check my 'WPRI-12' for the new comment...

I read the comments, and I was under the impression that the debate/disagreement was over who signed-on WPRI that morning, not who announced the ABC News program. Furthermore, I know Mr. Owen's voice like the back of my hand. As well, there's a profile of Owen on a tribute website to WABC Musicradio 77; check there for it.

Ok. But it was not my "debate/disagreement", it was someone elses, and I only wanted to make you aware of it in case you weren't.
