Description: In this fake local news broadcast, most likely made in the early 1970s, staff of San Antonio’s WOAI-TV spoof the station’s nightly newscast. Following a series of joke news segments, including raunchy stories about go-go dancers and adult movie theaters, the program transitions to a “far out” weather forecast and finger-licking sports report. The broadcast concludes with an editorial segment dispelling myths about the First Dog and offering suggestions to improve city utilities.
