Max Headroom Incident
Max Headroom Incident: November 22, 1987. During a WGN newscast, Chicago viewers watched in shock as their TV screens went black and a masked figure dressed as Max Headroom appeared. The pirate broadcast lasted less than a minute before being cut off. Later that night, the same figure returned on another channel, mocking broadcasters and acting erratically.

One of the greatest mysteries in broadcast history remains unsolved to this day. On November 22, 1987 someone—maybe a group of people—hijacked WGN’s signal and interrupted the 9:00 News. And our Dan Roan was right in the thick of it. As Dan prepares to retire from WGN on May 26th, here are his thoughts on that night in a report from 2017 on the 30th anniversary. | WGN TV
