WGN Channel 9 - Charlando - "Wisconsin Steel Works Closure" (Complete Broadcast, 7/26/1980) 📺

Here's a complete broadcast of a program for the Spanish-speaking community of the Chicagoland area, Charlando, a presentation of WGN Community Affairs and aired over WGN Channel 9. The host is Peter Nuno, his guests are Robert Rodriguez, union delegate of the Progressive Steel Workers Union and Wisconsin Steel Works, concerned housewife Helen Gutierrez, and Ignacio Sanchez, former employee of Wisconsin Steel Works, the topic is the March 1980 closure of the Wisconsin Steel Works plant in southeast Chicago where 3,400 workers lost their jobs and the effect that closure has had thus far on the community, and the program, except for the first opening voiceover at the beginning and the ending voiceover, is entirely in Spanish, as are the PSA's (but not the lower thirds).
Can anyone supply a complete translation of the program?

I remember watching Charlando while I was busy watching Saturday morning programming. Charlando, I think, lasted into the early 90s.

[@jamieschmidt939]

Charlando aired on WGN from Sun. 4/30/67 through Sat. 2/19/2000.

@@jamieschmidt939 Thanks for the clarification. 33 years is quite an reward for that show.

Very interesting and heartfelt story. Interested on how these three thousand plus people and their court case ended.

[@jsb1980]

Charlando is simply Spanish for “chatting”.

[@JeffK787]

The music with that Channel 9 ident at the beginning was epico!

[@wmbrown6]

Would anyone know what that music was, pray tell?

@@JeffK787 - P.S. A KPM library piece, "The Great Outside," had an opening in its structure similar to "The Last Farewell."

Before there was Univision and Telemundo, There was Charlando on WGN

And WCIU in Spanish part time

[@darrylh1971]

The 3 Spanish PSA's could have even aired on then partly Spanish station WCIU 26 at the time during the station's Spanish evening lineup.

[@wmbrown6]

In the NYC metro, wouldn't those PSA's have aired on WXTV Channel 41 and WNJU Channel 47?

Where's the subtitles for this video?
