> The other stations were just outlets for TV shows. KTLA felt more local. As a SoCal native I still remember watching Hal Fishman in the early 90s as a child, and vaguely watching him discuss the fall of the Soviet Union and the fall of the Berlin wall, OJ chase and trial and then more vividly watching car chases that interrupted my after school cartoons. Apparently he had the record for longest career Anchor in TV history up until recently [0]. I'd eventually leave for Fox 11 and as I kind of always wanted to have Rick Garcia's job. 0: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hal_Fishman https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hal_Fishman
