Dick Knipfing Retires

In Albuquerque it is big news that THE ANCHORMAN, Dick Knipfing, has done his last regular newscast.  It was in the same building where he started in the tv biz 51 years ago.

Anyway, some of the best of times in my life were while covering the news and working with Ricardo at KOAT.  We worked in studios on University Boulevard.  The building has been torn down, but the memories live on!

Here ... a memory jog.




From election central with our party experts, Fabian Chavez and Jack Eastham




And from the front page of a weekly throwaway TV schedule then available at your local grocery store.



Senior Citizens of KOAT-TV   -  Huh?   That was back in about 1973...


Those were the best of times!
