I remember the old ownership team of KOIN-TV, C. Howard Lane, Red Dunning, and a handful of others who owned KOIN radio, and then built the fledgling TV station from scratch. Does anyone remember the "Come and Get It!" show, every day at noon. Talk about local-local. A live studio band every day, live talent, live commercials.

Sure, technology has improved the quality of everything, but we have lost the personal touch of the old radio and TV stations. You could walk down the hallway, and drop into the owner's office almost anytime.

I never even met the last owner of the station. My, how times have changed.
