ah, 1977 was a good year!

Heh. All the Ohio Public Broadcasting stations had a version of that. I specifically remember WGTE's.

I am so racist against blue and green people, I'm sorry.

Ummmm . . . ?

Initial thoughts:

• Wow, Don Adams AND Don Henley!

• Dudes were rockin' the facial hair hard.

• Did Art Hansen later change his name to Doug Henning?

How many of these job positions don't even exist anymore? Isn't like a couple of technical spots and the rest is all sales now? :undecided

 

[Neighborhood Studios]

Wow, small world. I'm a sophomore at OU, and I'm a student engineer at WOUB. Most of those jobs are gone now...just a handful of engineers who run the place during the week, four students including myself who run the station on weekends, and some traffic and sales. It's mostly all automated at this point.
