WBZ Archives: WBZ’s First Anchor, Arch McDonald, Laid To Rest

[@altfactor]

This tribute didn't mention that Arch left WBZ-TV in 1969 to anchor a short-lived 10 P.M. newscast on the then WKBG Channel 56. After WKBG shut down it's news department, he went to WCVB Channel 5, then became editorial director at the old WNAC Channel 7 and finally in that same role at WRKO radio. A true pioneer.

McDonalds named the Golden Arches after him..No joke. Well, maybe a bad joke.
