The final moments of WNAC-TV

[Dan.Strassberg]

I'm not sure whether Leif Jenssen is still alive but I think he is.
His son, Gregg, does news at WBZ Radio. Despite great pipes, which he
clearly inherited from his dad, Gregg is plagued by an odd accent that
I can't classify or characterize. All I can say about it is that it
doesn't take long to get very old. Makes him kind of an automatic
tune-out for me.
