Beaver’s career in media began in the mid-1970s at another Bakersfield station while still a Kern County Deputy District Attorney. There he focused on legal affairs reporting, including exposing landlords violating California law. Beaver later moved to KBAK (Eyewitness News), working alongside Don Clark and Jackie Parks on the “29 On Your Side” segment. The team tackled issues such as landlord abuses, auto repair scams, and provided consumer education, including how to challenge credit card charges.
In addition to his work in local news, Beaver hosted weekend interview programs featuring local business people and political figures. Since the 2000 Presidential Election, Beaver has also been a regular panelist on Voice of America broadcasts.
