Chronicle (WCVB)

Many of the stories on Chronicle involve those that are of interest to New Englanders, from landmarks, vacation getaways, and the fine arts, to inspiring stories of people who overcame adversity, made an important contribution to society or, those who are currently in the news. However, Chronicle tends to avoid sensational tabloid topics and, since day one, has never underestimated the intellect of its audience. The program has been highly regarded for most of its years, and its long-running segment series, most notably The Main Streets & Back Roads, have become institutions.
