The commentator said that Bruce's Telecaster was made in Corona, though I thought that it was made in Fullerton.

For most field reporters, history for them began on the day they were born.

Beyond that, they are largely clueless.

Network TV news anchors know even less.

And old stories are new on the latter-day when the lesser informed first discovers and reports them (hoping to reach out to a new audience).

This is a benefit on a dog day newscast. :roll:

Many high profile newscasters have maxed out their skills to being presenters with a prompter full of fed stories. Once in a while a good reporter shows up if they are not jaded by ego and politics.

That aside, Fender awareness is good for all of us here IMHO.
