Surprise Discovery! Sam Donaldson…Cub Reporter, 1967

At 11:05 you’ll see WTOP TV shooting film then picking up the story in the studio with a very young Sam Donaldson on the set with an RCA TK41. You’ll even see him in the viewfinder! Sam’s part actually starts at 10:27 and he is back with the TK41 at 13:15. Enjoy!

    Man, he was half bald way back then even, lol. I remember all the teletype machines. We were using them in the 1980s even at the TV station I worked at. I loved reading the news as it came in.
