Mike Walcher wound up as a journalism instructor at Florida Gulf Coast University, Ft. Myers. And sportscaster Ron Gonder has been a mainstay at WMT TV and Radio.
Orion Broadcasting used the same branding on these stations: WFRV-TV 5 (Green Bay, WI), WJMN-TV 3 (Escanaba, MI), WAVE-TV 3 (Louisville, KY), WFIE-TV 14 (Evansville, IN), and WMT-TV 2 (Cedar Rapids, IA).
fired for calling out sick ? If the guy has a sick day, what's the problem ? I hope that sheriff gets whats coming to him. As for the next report, a judge not understanding how sound can be measured, shouldn't be a judge
I wish they had as many as these old complete newscasts online as possible.
1:14 imagine calling in to work fake-sick, only to be found out. And fired. And it makes the nightly newscast.
Conrad Johnson was great. Loved Ron Gonder, too. Where does the time go?

That announcer is the same one with WBT TV in Charlotte, NC.
WBTV is now owned by Gray television.
Watching this reminded me of why I moved the hell out of Cedar Rapids the day after I graduated high school in 1978
