Alan Krashesky, Jerry Taft and Roz Varon brought Chicago the news, weather and traffic each morning.
The show, and most of the people, changed over the years. As the show expanded, Kathy Brock was added to the news team.
Eventually, Hosea Sanders, Judy Hsu, Tracy Butler and Varon became the morning team for ABC7's two-and-a-half hours of local news, weather and traffic each morning. That team remains today and is celebrating 25 years of the newscast today. Join us as we look back at old shows and some funny moments from over the years.
