RIP Sylvia Chase.

After all these years, Ann Compton's still with ABC - under their ABC News Radio division, covering the same White House beat.

this had to be just before the more familiar abc news brief and music debuted...

President Carter to work on the strike--god help us all!

a brand new sedan for $4200.what has happened?

I seem to think this was actually early 1978, not only based on the coal strike which led this brief, but also the opening. Oh, and Bill Owen was the opening announcer.

1978 was the start of the American Economy tanking and the Coal Miner strike was just a sign of it

right you are!

@tomloft2000 4200 dollars back then is like 19000 dollars today.

@TheLizardKing1967 yes sir! and we remembered that's for sure

@xxashyy Let's hope so !

Hey! See! There are big storms over California sooner than 100 years ago!

What happened to her?

I wish 70 percent of news crap being produced now would just go away and they would just cut it back to this kind of simple information bulletin style show. News shows now are just empty caricaturish wastes of time. I cannot stand them and prefer to just get information from reading it off a website. They are mostly broadcasting to old people and right-wing ppl who live with tvs on to drown out the voices in their heads anyway.

@ThelizardKing1967 where you from? PA here have coal mines walking distance from my house that were flooded when they closed them down millions worth of coal in there ..just too greedy to hire workers to bring it out

alot of people killed themselves over the mines shutting down

@FrsBigeasy still can, coal miners do well

At first, report on coal and then weather

@rayjr62 Didn't say coal miners were government workers and I know they are not. If you are going to challenge my expertise the lease you could do is get the quote rigth. YOU are the one who said, if Reagan or Bush were POTUS they probably would have replaced the striking workers with scabs or sent in the national guard.

@xxashyy Well now, don't forget that other one term president. George H.W. Bush

I vote republican we kicked some major league butt
