Quoted from SideTrackTap:Good ol' Bill Bonds; a Detroit original. Didn't he [drunk] drive a purple Jaguar? And wasn't the movie "Anchor Man" loosely based on his life?

Quoted from Pintucky:Yeah, good ole Mort. He began his broadcasting career at my hometown station in Louisville, KY back in the late 1960's and early 1970's. He worked at WHAS-TV, the CBS affiliate. I loved his voice and knew he wouldn't stick around for long. His delivery was perfection. He was gone to better money in just a few years. The only thing that sort of made me think he was not credible, was that he was a part-time preacher at that time too! A preacher preaching the news! It just seemed odd. I'm glad to know he is still alive.

I worked at Channel 4 in the 90s in operations - microwave feeds, tape playback, etc...
Mort was a good guy. He may not remember your name each day, but he waved or said HI all the time.
