Show -. ' - r' ~ J: This was '46, '47. Yeah. And kept on doing that ... L: Let me ask you something here. What did you bring to or the formation of KALL? I mean, what would you person-ally bringing from your experience to it? J: Knowledge of how to gather and collate local news. In those days, national news came from the wire service. It came off the teletype machines. You had to cut it. You had to rewrite it in a way to shorten it. There was, what the station bought was a wire service which was very much like the wire service furnished the newspaper or was the wire service furnished the newspaper. You h3d to condense. You had to have a knowledge of national and world news in order to set a newscast up. I mean, we'd do three or four or five newscasts a day. For one of them, you'd push a button and get, say, Mutual. We had Mutual Network news. Which was all national and world. Our own local newscasts, one or two of them were a mix. You started off with world and national news and you went to local. Some of the other newscasts--in those days, there weren't really these two or three minute newscast. You had, most newscasts were fifteen minutes. You do five minutes of national, five minutes of state and regional and five minutes of local. You made arran-gements to pipe down as it were on a form line, the voice maybe of an announcer in Price for a minute or two. An announcer in Ogden, Logan. That was your regional. L: Li ke on the scene reporting? |
