This is the news segment replayed on recent KTVU's "Second Look" program, talking about the MGM Grand Fire that killed 85 people in Las Vegas in 1980 and its aftermath, the most precious part of this video is the opening of "The Ten O'Clock News", you will feel amazing how simple is that opening.

It was a fire trap because the Casinos were still mobbed up in 1980. The mafiosi who ran Vegas (and essentially owned those casinos) didn't give a shit about health or safety violations. They were too busy skimming the casinos and murdering anyone who got in their way.
Lowlifes.

KTVU was by far the best local news cast. When fox bought them I felt like puking.

He'd been working there since 68 and became an anchor in 76. I grew up watching him (born in 90) and I had no clue how long he'd been there. He seemed so eternal that I was surprised when he announced his retirement.

Yes, you will only hear "x is off tonight" now. BTW, the anchor that Elaine Corral mentioned in that clip, Claude Mann was died on Wednesday in Washington State, he was 83 years old.
