So. it should come as no surprise that when the frightening 6.7 Northridge earthquake struck. the people at KVEA came to the rescue. Almost as soon as the tremor shook the Earth around Angelenos. the station responded with Information. food and a 14hour telethon to bolster the efforts of the American Red Cross and the Salvation Army. When the wave of antiimmigrant sentiment surged during the 1994 election. KVEA took a stand and denounced proposition 187. The station sponsored the Riverside Summit to increase awareness and propose plans to combat immigrant bashing. As the proposition 187 vote neared. KVEA employed its newscasts. public affairs programs and public service announcements to alert viewers of the harm that its passage might bring.
