Neither WKBW 7 or WSEE 35 were listed here for some reason. Of note here, we see that Detroit viewers did not get Walter Cronkite in November 1962, as the CBS affiliate did not carry it. Also, WICU had ABC as the network of the week (or so it seemed at the time), CKCO was a couple years away from switching to CTV, and CHCH had been independent for about a year. The LFP was notorious for abbreviating program names at that time, so some things are not shown in full since I don't know what they are supposed to be. In this region, WJBK, CKNX, CFPL, and CKCO were the only stations with local news at six.<P ID="signature">______________
