WBOC-TV Salisbury circa 1985

As many of you know, I make the majority of my money in broadcasting, in addition, I am a broadcasting geek...a big broadcasting geek. For those who have not been on you tube, I will give you a benefit of my geekery. I happen to come across this video recently. Someone posted this video of WBOC-TV (Channel 16) from 23 years ago. This clip is super intriguing considering that they are currently building a brand new set right now.

Here is the video from 1985 of the last few minutes of the Delmarva Report.

  1. This is so good. I remember EACH one of these newcasters and what great job they did. They were
    very professional and well liked.
    Wow - have things changed over the years. Its nice to go back 23 yrs and remember the good ole days.

  5. I believe the first two are George Evanko and Jane Jordan. I think George went to a tv station around the Richmond area.

  8. Not exactly WMDT today. WMDT bought their current news set from WUSA (Channel 9) in my neck of the woods. They used that set from 1996-2000 with a revision in between to the current colors. The only thing missing is the background of Washington and the laptops 9 had in the anchor desk.
