Grimsby, in a sense, was seen on WCBS after his firing from WABC - in a short clip of his speaking at the memorial for Roger Sharp who died a week after Grimsby's firing in 1986. But in terms of actually working there, yes, that was the one channel Roger never worked at.
Roger Grimsby is very influential in the Bay Area he created the News scene concept under ABC Management with his bay area replacements like Van Amburg, Jerry Jensen and Pete Wilson. Grimsby made sure the Bay Area Stations did not go tabloidal and made KGO the most respected ABC O&O.

Hey, where's Ernie Anastos? He worked with Roger Grimsby as well.

@pooka5472 Ernie was the Ch. 2 anchor when this segment was taped. Probably too busy to sit.

That sucks I don't remember Roger Grimsby being mourned on KGO when he died. I wish There were more Clips of Grimsby as the KGO anchor.

John went back to doing what he did best. He's an artist and would showcase his paintings in the city from time to time.
