Dave Devall, who worked with Perry on the aforementioned two series, served as the announcer and was a de-facto co-host for this series.. It was a Glen-Warren Production for the CTV Television Network. During the final broadcast, Jim Perry applauded the long-running show for promoting news literacy.
