I remember those days with Don and Chris. I also remember pre-CNN with Ted Turner. My favorite part, which I consider to be miles better than CNN, was the talking German Shepherd giving the news on air. (They actually put peanut butter in the dog’s mouth to make him lick and appear like he was talking.)
I remember them and John Roberts, John Holliman, Lynne Russell, Miles O’Brien, Bobbie Bautista, Jeanne Moos, and “Style” with Elsa Klensch. They had many good anchors and reporters. Even Wolf Blitzer came across as middle of the road back then.
