WXYZ DETROIT — It’s time to catch up on our Channel 7 viewer messages. Linda Tagg reacted to our station editorial about breast cancer awareness month. She wrote:
“No one gets cancer testing anymore. That will happen when society’s trust in the medical industry erodes.”
Nancy Washington said:
“Let’s keep supporting the fight against breast cancer. Where your pink this month to increase awareness. Together, we can beat this disease.”
Janet Mast Stanfield sent us this reminder:
“Let us not forget that 2,620 men are diagnosed with breast cancer each year and 520 die.”
Our WXYZ-TV 75th anniversary celebrationmessages prompted these reactions. One viewer wrote:
“Happy 75th! Please go back to the good programming you (had) then.”

Albert Matasy simply said:
“Happy 75th Birthday.”
Patricia Fischer recalled:
“I was 6 years old then. Turned 81 years old (on your anniversary). Can you believe it!”
Another TV-7 fan wrote:
“In 1948, I was 4 years old for most of that year.”
- Raymond Szybowicz
Daniel Mitchell said:
“Congratulations, Channel 7! My family has been watching your station for three generations. Keep up the good work!”
D. Griffin left us this message:
“Detroit is a great news town. I watched your anniversary special on Sunday. It was terrific. Go memories of Bill Bonds, Diana Lewis, Jerry Hodak, and the entire team. I hope the journalists you have today appreciate the road they paved for them.”
