This is WBIR on election night in 1962. WBIR was the second TV station to go on the air in Knoxville, Tennessee and as of this afternoon is still the number one local news station. Note the LACK of computers! Note the amount of people SMOKING! Note the boards being used for the results! TV was really big WAY back then, only three and a half channels in Knoxville and air talent were local celebs!
