Christine Chubbuck Tape

Thanks to Dycaite for pointing out the seam similiarities.

I took some time to find some other similarities between the archived photo and a screenshot of the video I found. The 'backboards' both have rounded corners. Position of the chair's back seems consistent. Same angle on the letter 'C' in newswatch font.

What seems absent is the two coffee cups pictured in the original photo.

The thing I find very curious is the shot itself. Viewing at slow motion reveals her falling to the side and down, but I'm sure it was described that Christine hit the desk before falling.

There is also the curious wear on the tape at the time of shooting. A proponent of a hoax would say that the wear was added to mask inconsistencies in the production. A proponent of the tape being real might argue, "the tape is worn at that spot from continuous viewing and rewinding. Any vhs tapehead can tell you that lol"

Once again, I am not advocating that this is real, or a hoax. It's something that I feel needs further investigation.
