WMC 10pm Newscast - 1980

The Memphis Dream Team: Mason Granger, Brenda Wood, Jack Eaton, Dave Brown. This is likely from 1980, after Brenda had moved to weekdays and before Mason cut down to 5pm only. Joe Birch would soon take his place at 10:00. Also features soon-to-be weekend anchor Janet Morris doing a set piece, and soon-to-be mayor Willie Herenton when he was head of the school board.

Brenda Wood was the Memphis Queen back then. Where is she now. I know she married Mason Granger...

[NewsRetiree]

@arkansoul You're thinking of Kim Hindrew, who replaced Brenda (and later came back to replace Mearl Purvis) and did indeed marry Mason Granger. Brenda left Memphis for Atlanta where she worked first for WAGA and then (and now) for WXIA.

@NewsRetiree That's right!!! I couldn't think of her name for anything. Kim Hindrew, another good-looking woman. I'm sure glad you corrected me. I would have gone crazy trying to think of Kim Hindrew. I sensed Brenda Wood marrying Mason Granger didn't feel right...

Brenda wood made action news 5 the best watched news in memphis because she was too hot & sexy for the news back in the day until when 1988 came when memphis said good bye because her dr. of a husband said, it time to move on to atlanta ga. where he went she followed that's about it.

I love watching clips from 1980. I was two years old. wow. the fashion. amazing.

[SuperPlayboy89]

Damn Dave Brown old. Lol

@SIGMAMAN69, Wood is a dish. She hasn't changed in appearance much, though she's a bit too skinny now.

The glasses on the white guy are awful. The horn-rims of 15 years previous were much better than that mess. Jeez, what were glasses designers thinking?
