They were always kinda bad, but not blatantly so like they are today. Today they are nearly unreadable. The 70s though they were pretty cool. We only had like 2-3 chan els on TV, so we had to get all our world info practically from books or magazines. I read through the dictionary, learned a lot of words that way, and read a lot of the encyclopedia brittanica volumes. Plus we have a volume set of animal books that I got to know a lot of Animal names. Even to this day I’ll see some weird animal on TV and Wil, recall reading about it, and give some facts on it.. the family just looks at me like I have a third eye or something lol
