Christopher Chow of Asian Week has written an indepth piece on broadcast pioneer Sam Chu Lin of Sunnyvale, who died March 22. The former reporter for CBS News, KRON-TV and many other stations is described by Chow as a “one-man Asian American news wire service” who was always curious and proud of his heritage. The article details how Chu Lin succeeded in an industry that previously did not allow Asians on the air.
