Today Channel 3 turns 55. On September 21, 1957, your favorite television station went on the air for the first time. Our call letters then were WTIC, and became WFSB in 1974.
From all of us here at Eyewitness News, thanks to all of our viewers. We have viewers my children’s ages who have just started watching Channel 3, others who grew up watching us, and those who have been with us every step of the way.
This Sunday on Face the State, I have some of the oldest film in our archives from the fall of 1957. Every Sunday, look for our Face the State flashback, when we rebroadcast one of the stories from the past 55 years.
Here are some that you may have missed:
