R.I.P. Doug Murphy KPIX News

I just heard that newsman Doug Murphy died last night in a house fire. I grew up watching him on the Eyewitness News on channel 5.

oh wow...i remember before i had cable and sportscenter i used to watch every news channel waiting for the sports highlights. i had every news channel pattern down therefore had a sequence flipping through channels.

yeah, it feels like all these news anchors were a part of our households as we saw them on tv almost everyday. rip doug murphy
