Happy Birthday Channel 7....I wonder if KABC will do something like this next year. They did not celebrate 50 years.

Link 3 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 There slide show timeline says Eyewitness News became ABC 7 News in 1995. I thought they didn't switch that until the summer of 1996? But I could be wrong. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/4434-wlss-60th-anniversary/#findComment-41291 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CircleSeven 1955 Posted September 18, 2008 Author Share Posted September 18, 2008 From this , if you see the tease on November 22nd, 1995, they were still Eyewitness News. As a matter of fact after they changed to "ABC 7 News" on that Saturday in July of 1996, they still used those WPVI-style opens with the ABC 7 News logo. Also they changed the backdrops from the Eyewitness News logos to the ABC 7 logo. So this is a error on their part. On that very day in July of '96, Jim Rosenfield was still a weekend anchor at 7 for two more years.
