@FOXLA The Thomas Guides by Thomas Brothers Maps, currently by Rand McNally Maps, although they have some mistakes, are more accurate than GPS. The Los Angeles-Orange counties edition is still updated and published every few years and separately, the San Diego County edition.

@wxhistorian @spann That is a beautiful photograph.

Spectacular buttermilk sky this evening in Alpharetta GA! ⁦@spann⁩

@JasonCRosenthal @la_dorkout Kelly Lange wrote several murder mysteries, including Trophy Wife, the first, being in 1995. In January 2023, she was on fellow KNBC-TV alum Fritz Coleman podcast to discuss that and some scoops that went with her history on local news. It is on YouTube.

@la_dorkout As I understand she literally won that position in a contest held by KABC-AM at the Buena Park Mall, and it led to a very successful career in L.A. broadcasting. Former KNBC News Director Bob Long told me Kelly Lange left on her own in 1999 to avoid being "asked to leave."

Dawn O'Day (aka Kelly Lange) in another pictorial to promote her KABC Radio traffic updates in 1967, in the same signature jumpsuit that would be sure to cause its share of SigAlerts.

@JasonCRosenthal @la_dorkout There was a retrospective of Kelly Lange done on her last KNBC-TV broadcast in which they actually showed a clip of her asleep on the air with a moving arrow on screen to add emphasis. Former KNBC-TV reporter Patrick Healy did retro. Kelly, Chuck Henry, and Patrick had a laugh.

@JasonCRosenthal @la_dorkout Kelly Lange had been a guest on former KNBC newscaster Tom Snyder nationally broadcast "The Late, Late Show" on CBS-TV, on October 1, 1998 and joked that they both had been on the air "since before the Earth had cooled". Tom and she had worked together at KNBC in the 1970s.

@JasonCRosenthal @la_dorkout Kelly Lange had made public that she would be leaving KNBC-TV/4 near the end of 1998, per Los Angeles Times article. She was co-anchor of the 4 p.m. news with Chuck Henry as her last on-air position. Her last day on the air was December 23, 1998.

@JasonCRosenthal @la_dorkout Yes, the Buena Park Mall story has been told by Kelly in interviews about her early career. She had also been on game shows, such as What's My Line and an early black-and-white 1962 episode from a Johnny Carson game show.

@keith_johnson @la_dorkout Yes, she seemed down-to-Earth on the air.

@la_dorkout We used to photograph her for various news promos. She was always interesting to work with.

In 1967, future KNBC News anchorwoman Kelly Lange was known as Dawn O'Day (get it?), an eye-in-the-sky "traffic girl" for KABC Radio 790... never to be photographed without her foxy silver jumpsuit.

@la_dorkout The above photograph ran in TV Guide magazine in the early 1970s, I believe, as Kelly went from radio to television.

@MikeKruseRE @la_dorkout Christine Lund had two very successful stints at KABC-TV/7. The first, from the early 1970s through 1986. The second, from 1990 through 1998. She was the first female newscaster at KABC-TV/7. Chuck Henry reported from SLA shootout as well with Christine Lund.

@la_dorkout Didn’t Christine Lund start out with that same gig?

@MikeKruseRE @la_dorkout No, Christine Lund is from Sweden and her full name is Christine Lundstuhl. She arrived at KABC-TV Channel 7 in 1973 or 1974 and covered live the SLA shootout in south Los Angeles in May 1974. It had been unknown if Patty Hearst was in the fracas and she was not.

@JasonCRosenthal @la_dorkout Kelly Lange had returned to KABC-AM in the early 1990s as a fill-in host while still on at KNBC-TV/4. Early July 28, 1996, she called into the "Scott & Casey Show" on KFI-AM 640 after covering the just-occurred Olympic explosion in Atlanta. Live radio impromptu.

@JasonCRosenthal The fault got the name Newport-Inglewood Fault when it was thought to go from Inglewood to Newport Beach. They now know that it goes from Beverly Hills to Rose Canyon, offshore San Diego. The hills from Beverly Hills to Baldwin Hills are a part of locally.

Newport-Inglewood doing what Newport-Inglewood does, and if you felt it let USGS know about it.

@KimNBCLA @NBCLA Kim, you brought a journalistic integrity to local Los Angeles news that began in 1993 at KCAL-TV/9 and carried over to KNBC-TV/4 in 1996 through 2022. Your reports were always done with class and professionalism, studio or field. Congrats and all the best to you.

Personal news to share. Tuesday will be my last day on air @NBCLA! After 30 years as a reporter in LA, 27 of them with the incredibly talented team at KNBC, it’s time to start a new chapter. I’m grateful to have had my dream career and thrilled about the future!

@TheAngieCrouch Angie and Kim, you both were at KCAL-TV/9, then both made your way to KNBC-TV/4, and the both of you, just like Beverly White, Chuck Henry, and Vikki Vargas, were a big reason a lot tuned into your news. You did it with a touch of class. Congrats and all the best to all of you.

@VikkiNBCLA It’s been an honor being your colleague all these years. You set the bar high - one of the best Journalists I’ve ever known. Here’s to the next chapter! ❤️

I didn’t want the feeling in my heart to get lost in the written word so I decided to announce my retirement transition this way, marking both an end and the beginning.

@TheAngieCrouch That made for a group photo of veteran Los Angeles newscasters with a lot of years of experience, individual and combined, who have helped keep so many viewers informed over the years. Angie Crouch, I remember you at KCAL-TV/9 in the late 90s and at NBC4 since 2004.

@myflock1 That is a nice astronomical photograph of something in space and I am trying to figure out what picture depicts.

@rosscoulthart @AlchemyAmerican @YouTube I think that he has to be telling the truth that UFOs and UAPs exist. The United States of America is not the only nation on Earth and Earth is not the only planet in our solar system. There is an unknown number of galaxies, exoplanets, and universes that could have life.

UFO Whistleblower Dave Grusch tells his story to Jesse Michels @AlchemyAmerican. Note the emphasis that Grusch brought direct witnesses to the ICIG to give their first-hand evidence. youtu.be/kRO5jOa06Qw?si… via @YouTube
