Technical note: This recording was made in SLP mode and the tape had been improperly stored. As a result, the picture quality suffers but is still watchable.

Watching this because I saw it was from June 17, 1987. I was born 10 years later on June 17, 1997. Interesting to see what news was happening on my birthday just 10 years before I was born.

I grew up watching Mike Royer on TV.

I had no idea Eli was at WBRC.

About your tech note-- don't worry about it; that's not a problem at all! If anything, this is television news history right here, and that degradation actually makes it worth watching (at least IMO).

Wow, local TV did re-enactments?

I remember when Scott Richards was one of the coanchors on “32 Alive Newsroom” on WLKY-TV in Louisville back in the late ‘70s.
