 Stan
Chambers: News At 10 (From KTLA.com)
For sixty years, Stan Chambers, the most beloved reporting icon
of KTLA Channel 5 News, has come into Southern California's
(and sometimes the nation's) homes. Stan's career started with
the birth of KTLA, the first commercial TV station west of the
Mississippi.
Stan has covered some of the biggest stories to affect Los Angeles
and the nation. It began with the Kathy Fiscus tragedy in 1949,
where he covered the story live for 27 straight hours - the
first reporting of its kind - to breaking the monumental Rodney
King beating story that rocked the nation.
In this book, Stan shares his thoughts behind his enduring career
and highlights some of his more than 22,000 stories. He's still
out there, mic in hand, because, as Chambers puts it, "When
you report news in Los Angeles, you are broadcasting to the
biggest hometown in America."
Stan's book will be released to the general public on Feb. 15,
2008, but we have a limited number of books that are available
exclusively to our KTLA family now.”
