I'VE BEEN INFORMED by a local broadcast figure, that legendary broadcaster, Jim Dunbar has died. Dunbar passed away yesterday (April 22) cause of death unknown --Dunbar was 89.

Dunbar spent the bulk of his career at both KGO-TV and KGO Radio --the latter, as a talk-show host and for many years, the partner with Ted Wygant on the "KGO Morning News."
