THE MAX HEADROOM INCIDENT. November 22nd, 1987 was a pretty normal evening for television viewers in Chicago. That night, like every night, Dan Roan was covering sports on WGN-TV, Channel 9. Then suddenly, the signal was disrupted and screens across the city cut to black. Engineers at WGN-TV thought their transmitters were failing. They weren't.

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

Back when Chicago was great. Sports on WGN with Dan Roan long long before WGN full TDS mode. I won't watch that station again. Great Cubs highlights from 1987 in a walloping of the Astros, including grand slams by Brian Dayett and Keith Moreland. On another note, let's make Illinois great again and flip it red.

During the sports segment on WGN-TV Channel 9, the screen suddenly went black before being replaced by a figure wearing a Max Headroom mask—an artificial intelligence character from 1980s pop culture. The broadcast was silent except for a buzzing noise before station engineers regained control after about 25 second
