Narrated by Christopher Glenn, who passed in ‘06. A way to get kids a bit of current events info.
The syndicated oldies show Lost 45s has/had a segment where host Barry Scott would mention some news stories in a given year. The synth opening/closing of In The News served as backing.
Weird, just last night I was watching a YouTube video of Glenn covering the Challenger explosion, he really was about to lose it, he was pretty badly shaken by witnessing it. Perfectly understandable. I hadn't realized he had passed away so long ago, I was wondering whatever happened to him.
Christopher Glenn was cool, but the Schoolhouse Rocks segments over on ABC were da bomb!
