Wiley Daniels was one of the first successful black newsmen in Baltimore. He integrated television news at Thirteen when he came to Television Hill in 1965.

WJZ from Wiley Daniels forward.. for some reason had a lot of principals pass away from 1977 to the mid 1980s..

[@Ultegra10SPD]

Just before my time. But the fact that “the greatest” knew his name and who he was is proof enough. -U10

Wiley Daniels died in 1977.Unfortunetly I wasn,t living here in Baltimore MD in 1977 because me & my parents(both deceased)were still living in The Twin Cities Mpls.St.Paul Mn & didn,t move to Baltimore MD until 1981!!

Thanks for this footage wow never seen it before

[@harrietforce5488]

Wylie Daniel's seem to be a good guy. I liked him then and I see no reason to change my opinion now. I hope his family didn't have suffer to much. I hope everything was ok for them.

[@balston113]

That had to be a tough day for everyone in that studio and around the city. Wiley wasn't even sick, it was so sudden. You could see Al fighting back tears after that City Council tribute. Sad day in Baltimore.

[@balston113]

@Only1JZ do you have any video or a broadcast of Randy Blair's passing?

[@saxwork]

I'm thinking the same as you. I've put out a few requests to some contacts, let's hope I get some responses. You can be assured that once I get it, I'll post it.

[@balston113]

@@saxwork awesome! I love your channel and thanks for the excellent videos!

Gone Too Soon

@@saxwork was thinking the same thing

[@wmbrown6]

I see in one of the clips, WJZ around this time used Norelco PC-70S-2's.

[@kevinevans5921]

I was only 8 but remember this, unfortunately the first of many tragic deaths to the channel 13 news team.

[@graymanmedia]

@Only1JZ I just have to ask. How far back does your Archive go?

[@saxwork]

Hi! Thanks for the question. Most of the stuff I have in my possession is roughly from 1994-1999, but I have a few outliers that come earlier or later. The other stuff I am dependent on is from a friend at the Mid-Atlantic Regional Movie Image Archive (marima.org), so if you're looking for some real oldies, check them out.

[@graymanmedia]

@@saxwork OK, So 90s pretty much. Some 80s, a few from the 70s, but no Royal Parker stuff. GOT IT.
