CHUCK SCARBOROUGH
Chuck Scarborough (born November 4, 1943) is an American television journalist and author. Since 1974, he has been the lead news anchor at WNBC, the New York City flagship station of the NBC Television Network, and has also appeared on NBC News. He currently anchors News 4 New York at 6 p.m. every weeknight.(More from Wikipedia)
We have been bombarded with important anniversaries this year. Closer to home, our local television station, WLOX-TV was formed in 1962, so we have been seeing a lot of old footage. Beloved Good Morning America anchor Robin Roberts – now recovering from a second round of cancer treatment – worked at WLOX for a few years and also grew up on the Coast (in Pass Christian); she almost single-handedly brought knowledge to the major media of the devastation from Hurricane Katrina in Mississippi, when most talked only of New Orleans. Chuck Scarborough got his start at WLOX-TV as well; when I lived in New York, I used to see him on the local news at WNBC-TV, where he has been the lead male news anchor for nearly 40 years.
