Was “Happy Valentines Day, Charlie Brown” an affiliate show or was it run across the network?
Yeah, unless it’s WWIII, such announcements can wait.
The entire national ABC network was playing the Charlie Brown show. The news guy started out by saying something like “Parents, we have a news announcement which may not be appropriate for the children who are watching this Charlie Brown cartoon, so you might want to get them out of the room.” Those weren’t his exact words, but it was enough to scare the daylights out of pretty much everyone who was watching.
