On This Day....

On October 4, 1976 history was made in TV News.

Barbara Walters became the first woman to anchor a network evening news program.

Walters was named the Co-Anchor at ABC Evening News.

It was a major milestone and pissed off her Co-Anchor Harry Reasoner to no end.

Look at "Happy Harry" in the photo above.
