The film looks back at how Eyewitness News was started because of the vision of Al Primo. He thought of and then implemented the concept.
Primo hired many of Channel 7's legendary anchors and reporters - from Geraldo Rivera to John Johnson to Rose Ann Scamardella.
Primo believed the people presenting the news should look and sound like the audiences they served.
