Dave Moore’s final 10pm newscast aired September 20, 1985. Dave was replaced by Don Shelby the following Monday who has been at the anchor desk ever since. Dave continued to do the news at 6pm until December 1991.
KSTP-TV Eyewitness news Saturday night September 1982. Marcia Fluer is the solo anchor from this Saturday evening in 1982. The first ten minutes of the news is captured. Also features Robb Leer reporting sports.
The KSTP-TV news team knows how to report news and have fun as shown in this 1983 commercial with Stan Turner, Cyndy Brucato, Dennis Feltgen, Bob Bruce, Dave Dahl, Jason Davis, Marcia Fluer and more. Energy, touch football and a large sandwhich at what I assume to be a park near Lake Calhoun. Also includes Tom Barnard narration and a theme song that is really addicting.
You can’t appreciate the cold until you see the meteorologist outside in the cold. In this KSTP-TV newsbreak from the winter of 1986 meteorologist Dennis Feltgen reports on the frigid Minnesota weather from the intersection of interstate 94 and highway 280. Also an appearance from Angela Astore.
A WCCO-TV documentary on the farmer protest movement of the late 1970s. Reporter
A great thing about this site is that people are starting to view it and want to contribute. This documentary was produced and written by Tom Hendrick who worked for WCCO-TV in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Tom found me through the site and provided this contribution.
Tom Hendrick traveled to Washington D.C. with Minnesota farmers protesting farm legislation as many farms in Minnesota and across the midwest were going bankrupt. An example of in depth local journalism on a timely issue.
