In case you just wandered onto this web page, we are the News Geezers - an informal, friendly group of veteran Southern California TV, radio, print, web and PR journalists. Starting in 2024, we're holding get togethers twice a year.  

Our mailing list is about 450 strong.  

Credit for the name "News Geezers" goes to the late, great Bob Long.  Learn about  the background of our group by clicking on the "About" tab above (or at the top of any page).  The names of all those on the mailing list can be found at the "RSVP/Roster" tab of this site.
Thanks and cheers!   



45 Attended September's Lunch, Videos Online;

We'll have three Geezer gatherings in 2025!

   






 










     Thanks to everyone who attended our latest News Geezers lunch.  It was on Sat Sep 14 at Victorios in North Hollywood.

       We honored the memories of Linda Deutsch... and Bob Navarro.

        Plus two of our author-members (Ivor Davis and Dave Lopez) spoke... and sold books.

     Plus we had plenty of open mic time. 

    The links to videos of the edited program plus the interviews recorded before and after the program are to the right.

        We took a vote... and there was unanimous agreement to hold three lunches in 2025.

      They will probably be in February, May and October.

      Exact dates are TBA.

       We have transitioned from a themed program (with audio/video elements) to a more informal get together... in which everyone who attends is our special guest and gets a chance to address the group.
      We pass a wireless microphone around... for your news and views.

      The venue will continue to be Victorios at 10901 Victory Blvd. in North Hollywood.

​        Thanks to everyone for your continued support.             Have a happy, healthy, holiday season!
