RIP Wendall Anschutz

http://www.kansascity.com/637/story/1668997.html


Wendall Anschutz, whose serious approach to news and folksy presence on camera made him Kansas City’s most popular news anchor throughout the 1980s, died Thursday morning. He was 71 and had been undergoing treatment for metastatic throat cancer at the University of Kansas Medical Center.

From 1966 to 2001, Anschutz was a reporter and anchor at KCMO-TV, later known as KCTV. He became an anchor in 1969, was kicked back to a reporter’s job when new management came in, then worked his way back behind the desk.

On July 16, 1979, he was paired with a new co-anchor, Anne Peterson, and the two quickly became a sensation, attracting 40 percent of the audience to their newscasts by year’s end. They went on to form one of the TV industry’s most durable on-air partnerships, finally ending when Anschutz opted for retirement in 2001.

In 1989, Anschutz suffered a stroke and, as part of his recovery, began oil painting. Eventually he sold his works to galleries. His most popular paintings featured enormous, tidal-wave-shaped clouds looming over the prairie.

Funeral arrangements are pending, according to a family member

RIP Wendall. Nice guy.

It's odd, KCTV5/KCMO used to have the most personable news staff, 'local personalities' all, I watched them because they seemed sensible. Now that station specialzes in 'Rain storm approaching! Batten down all hatches, build a boat!' and 'Live at 10...Sun sets in west, sky goes dangerously dark!' WTF happened?

WTF!?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

This totally sucks. He was one of the classy, good anchors on local KC television.

All of the class-act anchors are gone. All of these new people suck and try to sensationalize everything too much. KCTV is now all like, "And after the break we'll tell you about a threat in the Kansas City area that CAN KILL YOU!!!" When you come back, its like smog or them increasing the chlorine in the drinking water (or some lame-duck crap like that).

That is why I rarely watch local news anymore.

That is why I rarely watch any news anymore. I'm young and don't remember a lot, but guys like Brokaw, Jennings, and Russert will NEVER be back again. First off there's too many different competing networks for any one figure to gain enough fanbase to become a legend, and also there's too much fluff and sensationalism to take them seriously. When you have to take a given amount of news and make 24 hours out of it, you're going to get crap out. "Massive bombing in Islamabad kills 28, and see how this kitten can play the keyboard!"

Not only is Boots Williams Ford gone, but the very earth it stood on is displaced as is 'that swingin' Red Bridge exit.'

Straight dropped off ramp and a roundabout now.
