KOMU Experienced Growth
|
KOMU began making advances in the relatively new medium of television, such as offering weekend newscasts for students to practice their on-air skills. The trend of using "anchors," however, was yet to develop, and the news director often read the news from a script. The growth of women in the profession was slow; by 1969, four women were enrolled in the broadcast news sequence.
Broadcast students learned behind-the-scenes camera and lighting techniques at KOMU on programs such as the Missouri Forum (top left), in addition to working the control booth (top right) and handling the camera (center and bottom left). As the decade progressed, more women were seen on television (bottom right).
