    Just like the title says....

    I'm just wondering if there are any pins that have a theme based on TV broadcasting/news/reporting.

    If so what are they? (My wife works in broadcasting and I'm trying to plan for a future gift)

    Thank you for the help!

    Off the top of my head:

    Gottlieb's Big Broadcast

    Gottlieb's Lights, Camera, Action

    Bally Game Show is another one.

    There might be one more at some point if I get my way...

    Thanks for the replies!

    The wife has mentioned how amazing it would be if they made a Ron Burgundy "Anchorman" pin.

    Seeing that those haven't been made, I am trying to find something else related to a broadcasting theme.

    Someone needs to do WKRP. The thanksgiving turkey drop multiball would be epic.

    There is an Anchorman slot machine. Take her to Las Vegas,

    That's in the cards. But I would like to get a EM pin for her that has a newsroom/broadcasting sort of theme (preferably nothing Hollywood/Movie/Gameshow based)

    Just wondering what's out there....

    I guess dialed in because on the LCD it's shows like news related stuff at the bottom. The call outs are also like a news station telling you about all the chaos happing in the city.

    Jude Dredd has Anita Mann broadcasting.

    Dialed In is like a British news casting.

    In a strange sort of way I would say AFM. When you hit the start button it sounds like a reporter telling you the beginning of the story.

    1934 Radio Station. Could be very difficult to find.
