By logic, all parents have children. And so, with that thought in mind, I bring you yet another statewide newspaper listing, this time in another Southern state, the Magnolia state of Mississippi. On Sundays, the Jackson newspapers, the Clarion-Ledger and the now-defunct Daily News published a joint edition prior to the latter's closing in 1989. Included was "Mississippi TV Magazine," which covered not only the Jackson market, but all parts of the state, as the newspaper circulated practically statewide.
This first part of the listing is for the Jackson/central and southwestern Mississippi area. Programs are for Thursday, September 23, 1982.
