I have two Angular controllers:

function Ctrl1($scope) {
    $scope.prop1 = \"First\";
}

function Ctrl2($scope) {
    $scope.prop2 = \"Second\";
    $scope.

I looked thru the answers above, I recommend pejman's Dec 29 '16 at 13:31 suggestion but he/she has not left a full answer. Here it is, I will put this as --> (you need a service and a listener $watch on one of the scopes from controllers for changes in the service area)

var app = 
angular.module('myApp', ['ngRoute', 'ngSanitize']);

app.service('bridgeService', function () {
    var msg = ""; 
    return msg;
});
app.controller('CTRL_1'
, function ($scope, $http, bridgeService) 
{
    $http.get(_restApi, config)
    .success(
    function (serverdata, status, config) {
        $scope.scope1Box = bridgeService.msg = serverdata;
    });
});
app.controller('CTRL_2'
, function ($scope, $http, bridgeService) 
{
    $scope.$watch( function () {
        return (bridgeService.msg);
    }, function (newVal, oldVal) {
        $scope.scope2Box = newVal;
    }, true
    );
});
