WXYZ is celebrating 70 Years of 7. For 70 years, WXYZ has served the people of Southeast Michigan and covered the stories that connect, inform and strengthen its communities. “It’s an honor to look back at the past 70 years and the incredible impact WXYZ has had on this community,” said Mike Murri, WXYZ’s general manager.
Oct. 9 marks the 70th anniversary of the day WXYZ, the Scripps ABC affiliate, signed on the air in Detroit.
WXYZ will recognize this historic milestone with an on-air and social campaign that celebrates the moments viewers remember through the years, the news events and the most memorable sports events of the past seven decades.
