On the other side of the Cascades, America used to be on KIRO/7 [was America mostly on CBS stations?], and Headline Chasers used to be the lead-in to the 5:00 news on KOMO.

I was 5 at the time of these listings, and have no recollection of either show. They must both have been very short-lived.
 
Headline Chasers used to be a game show hosted by Wink Martindale. It lasted one season.
