When I get some free time at home, I watch videos of old newscasts from my hometown of Peoria. Now it is time to watch a vintage newscast from my new hometown.

Here is a video from 1980 from TV station WIFR. This video is from a YouTube subscriber My Life In Video. If you are interested in more of these videos check out his channel.

As you can see from the video, there are many changes from then and now. Espceially when people use a dry erase marker to forecast the weather.

Enjoy!
