What's on TV? Wednesday, June 5, 1974

WIe're back in Northern California this week, but unlike most trips to the Bay Area, where we're in the 1960s, this time we're in the '70s, and so you'll get a slightly different look at channels as well as programs. One thing I did want to single out, tho0ugh, and that's KSHL in Chico, which features both the ABC news with Howard K. Smith and Harry Reasoner, and the CBS news with Walter Cronkite. Talk about fair and balanced, hmm?
