Considering that Gothamist can't remember a day when WNBC anchors Chuck Scarborough and Sue Simmons weren't anchoring the evening news, it shouldn't come as a suprise that they are celebrating their 25th anniversary of working together. But, damn, that means we're getting old. Scarborough has been at WNBC for 30 years, while today is Simmons' 25th anniversary (check out her slide show). Newsday's Verne Gay calls them "One of the great anchor teams in New York TV history."
Today at 5PM, Chuck and Sue will be going down memory lane; Gothamist just hopes they kick it a little old school, the way ESPN did in August, with some 80's fashion and hairstyles. Chuck and Sue's regular broadcast is the 11PM News on WNBC Channel 4.
