George Putnam was an American television news reporter and talk show host based in Los Angeles. He was known for his catchy phrases "That's the up-to-the-minute news, and up-to-the-minute that's all the news" at the end of his broadcast. He concluded the 5:00 PM news with a teaser, inviting viewers back to get the full story at the station's late evening news program, smiling his signature close, "News at ten, see ya then."
