I notice WEWS didn't carry ABC News; it wasn't carried in
Atlanta at the time, either. I wonder if these were the two
biggest markets to pre-empt. WQXI (now WXIA)/11, ABC in those
days, had local news at 5:30, Dick Van Dyke at 6, Hazel at
6:30, and What's My Line at 7.

Sister station WAGA/5 Atlanta did the same thing, as did
WPRI/12 Providence.

Frank Reynolds was co-anchoring with Howard K. Smith prior
to that.

IIRC, WPTV/5 West Palm Beach (also Scripps-Howard)
carried him.

I am not sure he was on in Cleveland that long. Channel 5 had their own established Kids show host, Ron Penfound (Captain Penny)..Based on memory and TV schedules I've seen Uncle Al was on channel 5 from at least the latter part of 1969 through much of 1970. He was definitely off the air in Cleveland by January 1972 because of the Debut of the Morning Exchange Talk Show (which also canceled Captain Penny after 15-16 years)
