Since its debut in 2013, WTAE’s Chronicle has held a mirror up to Pittsburgh and been there as the city took on the challenges of the 2010s and early 2020s.
To celebrate, WTAE, Hearst’s ABC affiliate, is airing an hour-long special, Chronicle: 10 Years of Pittsburgh Stories on Wednesday, Sept. 20, at 8 p.m.
This hour-long documentary includes new interviews with journalists from WTAE’s roster of talent who curated those stories, explaining what they learned along the way and how those stories impacted the Steel City.
“Over the past 10 years, our team has covered some really interesting and impactful topics for Chronicle episodes,” says Charles W. Wolfertz III, WTAE’s GM. “This Chronicle will feature some of the highlights that we think our viewers will enjoy revisiting.”
The program also includes key moments from the dozens of Chronicle documentaries that have aired in the past decade, from the change enacted by Chronicle: Burning Questions to dramatic efforts to bring families hope in Chronicle: Compassion and Cannabis.
“We look forward to sharing our journalists’ perspectives from their work on Chronicle programs between 2013 and 2023,” says Jim Parsons, WTAE’s news director. “They will share how some of those stories impacted them as journalists as well as on a personal level.”
