And that's a number that's not unfamiliar to Beverly, as well as co-host of People Are Talking. Do you enjoy that? Oh, very much. Very much. I come from a totally news background, and when I had the opportunity to do a show that really lets you flow with it, you know, you're unscripted with a new show. I was anchor in a North Carolina station. And you're so scripted, there's not a lot of time or opportunity for you to really delve a little further into questions that you would like to to ask. And this show really allows me to do that. Let let's let's give the community, our viewers a sense of who Beverly Burke is. What would you like for people to know about you?

You know, people will look at you, though, and say, Oh, she's a star. And for many of them, you'll be the closest thing to Hollywood that they'll ever get. Are you are you that much of a star in your own eyes? And how do you relate to folk who tend to believe that Beverly is a star?

You know, you really take such a chance when you're on the air to invade their privacy. Actually, I mean, actually, they turn the television on. But you are there and all of a sudden you're commanding their attention because you're going to pass on information. You're going to try and spy or inform them. And I think that when they take you in and your information, you know, that really humbles me. So when someone talking to me, you cannot go to the Giants to get a gallon of milk without being approached by 1215 people. Isn't that an invasion? No, it isn't. It really isn't. I think people are. People are just nice. You know what they're nice about? It's fine. It's when they when they dig into your grocery cart and say, I want to see my family guy and I. Wait, hold on a minute. You know, we're going to come back to that. I am glad that you're saying they're nice, but I'm wondering if all of that life will come back in a moment.

I looked upon it as an opportunity to expand my capabilities and I was very excited about that. But when I found out about Oprah and how popular she was, it was it was a little intimidating, I might say, to to follow someone so popular and so loved by this community. But I have to say that Baltimore has really, really been very good to me and has allowed me to to introduce myself as myself and for me to be me. And I thank you, Baltimore, for that. But, you know, a lot of people compare you to Oprah in the way that you come across on the air and even look. I would expect that I would really expect people to make some comparisons because she was before me. She was very popular. She still is very popular. You know, she's loved and and I would expect that. And and so all I can say is that I, I have to be me and hope that people accept me for who I am. Okay, let's try another phone call. Hi. You're on the air. Hi. I have a question for Beverly. Hello? Yeah, Beverly? Yes. I wanted to know, what would you advise for young, aspiring co-anchor person? And in which direction? We do. Tell them to head and try to get a job in this market. Opportunity seem to be so limited. I am so glad you asked me that question, because this is very near and dear to my heart.

That's not quite the truth, that the whole truth. When I graduated from school, I went out looking for that job. And everywhere I went I was asked first, Do you have experience? Now how do you get experience if you don't have a job? And that's a real difficult period for many graduates. But let me say this. If you're in high school right now and you're interested in the in the communications industry, do yourself a favor and look into the junior colleges. I say this because junior colleges, your your two year institutions will give you a broad based idea of what communications is about and all of the different aspects of it. When you're able to, after two years, which you will end up with a degree, have an idea of firmly what you want to do, you won't be wasting a lot of time for your institution's waste, your time with theory. And I say that after those two years, you can lean in that direction. And one thing you will try to do as soon as you get into school is to get that job. And I don't mean start in Baltimore, I start in New York, or try knocking on doors in Chicago, go to Podunk, Mississippi, go to Durham, North Carolina, to get the foot in the door and get that experience, because it takes that time of experience to get it further ahead. Okay. We've got a question from the audience. Yes, sir. First, I'd like to say good morning, Dan and Jackie. Morning. And, Miss, when you first came to Baltimore, how did you go about taking over the position of anchorperson for people talking to people in town? Well, one of the things that I thought was very important for me, when you move into to a new area, there's a lot you don't know about the people and the community itself.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://marmia.aviaryplatform.com/collections/948/collection_resources/85889/file/174092#t=544.38,639.09"},{"id":"https://marmia.aviaryplatform.com/collections/948/collection_resources/85889/file/174092/transcript/47229/annotation/6","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"But what I did was to ask the news director if I could report for about two weeks before I actually go on the air anchoring. When you take the position of anchor, it's such an authoritarian position that people don't allow you to make many mistakes. So if I was going to pronounce the name wrong or a community wrong or a lake or a stream or something, it's it's quite showing. And people remember that for a long time. So when I'm out reporting for two weeks, that gets me into the community and gets me into what I call the trenches. I get to find out a lot more about the area. So that's how I did it. How do you feel as being a black female role model? Oh, that is a good question. I, I feel very responsible. I think that it's a very, very important position. I, I like to make myself an accessible resource to the community and to young people. And so I'm here for that. So do you take speaking engagements? Do you go out into the city and volunteer or become involved in some things that are going on? Schools are very close to my heart, so I schools are my priority. I will go to to any just about any institution to to speak to the students there. Right. You'll probably get some in career days and think I have a result here. Tell us about your back. Round. Where are you from? I won't ask your age, but you know. How long were you in the business before you came to Baltimore? Just anything that you feel that the people need to know.

And as I said, I started out my degree is in advertising, my background is in commercial art, and that's where my interest lay. But it was a little hard to get into the business. So I basically started off as a gofer at a radio station and really picked up my experience along that. And I've done everything as far as engineering and producing commercials, too, directing. In fact, the Buffalo Bills football games when I was in Buffalo, New York, and the Syracuse Chiefs baseball games when I was in Syracuse. But you've got experience behind the camera as well as in front of the. Exactly. Which probably helps you to understand the industry a little bit better. Yes. And I have I've had about seven years in radio also. So I've been on the technical and on air. Yes. In fact, I was the first black woman, first black in Syracuse and in Buffalo on a top 40 rock and roll AM station. And I think that was a real good opportunity for me.

I mean, if you want to believe that it's a lot of fun and that and that you're going to travel, you're going to meet people and it's going to be exciting. It's going to be crazy. It is those things.

We're going to bring them in now. Hi. Your live on City Line. Well, I'd like to ask Beverly what her aspirations would be in the next, say, five years where she'd like to be. And the other part of that question would be, would you like to go back to New York City in some on air capacity? Well, let me first say that I I'm really sort of surveying the market to see what kind of opportunities are out there. I really enjoy news reporting and I think the I will always keep part of my my search concern in that area. I also like talk shows. The combination of the two would be great, like a morning news program on a network station would be great. Like Good Morning America. There you go. Move over. I'm coming to you. We talked about Oprah and your replacement of her here on Channel 13, but you also working with another institution, Richard Sher. Oh, yes.

I think it's a great compliment, as we heard. In fact, you know, it's really funny. When I started in radio, I played around with different voices. There were no women on the air that I could pat or myself after or try to pattern myself after. So I played around with quite a few voices and ended up with what you hear right now, sort of your regular voice, really, because I went from hard rock to cassadee really, you know, sexy, real serious, you know, and radio very fast. It was very nice. Oh, goodness. Michael Jackson. All right. Especially when you're trying to move that that record up to the hour and you're trying to get the last words in. And the temperature is 48 degrees. And we were going to put on this next dedication to Susie and and Allan. See, I'm stuttering now, getting out. I had an opportunity to relax. Those were many years ago. Dan, we've got another question from the audience. Yes, ma'am. Good morning to all of you. Beverly, now we see you as a very positive role model in our community. And for that, we're very grateful. Now, I'm thinking in terms as an educator, thinking about young people.

And I hope that the parents are listening right now, that they have to give their their children some very realistic basics to start out with. In other words, don't sell them on the theory of what they see. Take a look at what's behind what they see. Take your children and taken to a radio and television station and show them what goes on there. Let them become aware of of all the different jobs. You know, Jackie, of Dan sitting here, their show is a very nice, great looking show. The production is great. Well, there are people behind the scenes that are making them look as beautiful and wonderful as they are and bringing this this to your audiences. And and it's so important that that young people understand that those things are there, too. So if they may have a dream right now to be the star, they might find out that maybe they really should be. The power is behind the stars and those are real star areas. Thank you for that question. That's very good.

Topping today's news cap, Jesse Jackson might very well win the presidency if he were white, so says pollster Lewis Harris. Harris says a survey in New York shows that Jackson was viewed by both blacks and whites as more of a real leader than either Gary Hart or Walter Mondale. Locally, Jesse Jackson campaign officials say they are looking into the possibility of filing a suit against Maryland State Board of Elections. The officials charge delegate slate tampering or the changing of ballot positions and leave the numbers as cost the Jackson campaign valuable time and money.

The group hopes to secure a number of jobs on the local level for minorities in the areas of municipal and county government colleges, universities and utilities.

Oh, I said, tropical print. It's got to be something that's hot for the summer, you know, something I would wear in the jungle and we're going to the jungle.

But. Gregory what about the dollars and cents point of view? What are the plans to kind of stabilize it so that you really have a foothold in the fashion industry? Yeah. The first few years that we were doing this, we started in 79. So the first four years we were devoted basically to getting her name out to develop some sort of track record.
