Samantha 2895 Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 WGHPiedmont NewsChannel 8 at 6PM (1994) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghn3ToL8OTc (FULL NEWSCAST) There's so much material in the Internet Archive from the Piedmont (like this) that it's amazing. There's a channel I follow that's promising a KIRO open from March 1994 (News Channel 7 era) soon. That should be interesting.
