As part of a continuing campaign to bring voters in the nation's most populous state a balanced, sharp-focus picture of the candidates and issues in this election year,on October 5th KNXToriginated an hour-iong,"live"debate between the two candidates for U.S. Senator: incumbent Pierre Salinger,Democrat, and George Murphy, Republican. For the first time in this heated campaign, the two opponents argued their causes face-to-face. It marked the first time ever that a local California television station originated a full-hour, prime time debate between opposition party candidates for a major national office. Cecil Smith of the Los Angeles Times wrote: "A face-to-face meeting like this has great value and is a superior use of television. Much credit for this must go to KNXT!'

In pioneering ways to bring home all the facts to the largest number of voters, a mass medium fulfills its highest purpose. And no one does the job better than CBS Owned KNXT®2 LOS ANGELES *Based on arb television estimates, subject to qualifications which knxt will supply on request.
