Ron Magers! Holy shit, that brings back memories! He used to be on SF Bay Area TV in the late '60s / early '70s, and I liked him a lot. He had a sort of wry, intelligent approach to the news. He also hosted and produced a weekly magazine show called "Ron Mager's Electric Impressions" (it was the '60s, it was SF, give him a break) in which, sporting violently-colored turtleneck shirts, he presided over a mix of live music performances (I remember Chuck Berry), animation, comedians, and short films. I thought it was Too Cool when I was 13.
Anyway, I'm glad he's still out there.
