WAKA CBS 8 Celebrates 50th Anniversary Print E-mail
Written by CBS 8 News   
It's a big week here at WAKA CBS 8, as we celebrate our 50th anniversary!

We first hit the airwaves as Selma TV station WSLA on March 17, 1960, originally transmitting from a garage.

Now, 50 years later in Montgomery, WAKA CBS 8 offers the strongest digital signal in the state, with newsrooms in central, south and west Alabama.

WAKA CBS 8 was also the first station in the market to make the digital switch. In January, we launched the all new waka.com, complete with video and other features to keep you in the know at any time of the day.

And that is just the beginning of our next 50 years. Happy anniversary WAKA CBS 8!
