Looks like WVEC will be debuting a new logo soon

That looks soooooo much better than the logo they have now.

Time for KAMR Action News 4 in 1989. The theme is custom. A bumper, 30-second image theme "Channel 4, People Like You" and news theme are included.
Is this a second KAMR Peters package?
I listened to this a bunch of times; it sounds a lot like Tuesday to me. Them and Peters were both in San Diego, so there may have been some overlap in terms of the musicians they used.

WRTV 1989 promo. The music was used by KUSA around this time as an open bump. Production or network track?
Hate to bring up such an old post, I have the answer. It's Chris de Burgh, believe it or not. A deep track called "Last Night".

I was actually expecting it. I was wondering who would be first: Sally-Ann or Eric Paulsen? You know he's next (been at the station roughly the same time as Sally-Ann).
Sheba Turk should take Sally-Ann's spot, but knowing management, it wouldn't surprise me to see Leslie Spoon get it.

It's Conneticuit News 30 from WVIT in 1997:
Very similar to WTOG's graphics from the same era. WTOG was WVIT's sister station for that brief period between the WNYT/WHEC trade to Hubbard and WVIT's sale to NBC.

Why can’t Glendive TV look that good?

The announcer in that open? The late Dave Deval.
He's not dead.

And this must be the image package that prompted the alternate signature of Great News/KBJR...
Most definitely a Gari jingle, complete with Florence Warner. And that may be the only instance I know of an NBC affiliate airing Arsenio (and the Disney Afternoon).

So “Good News” debuted in early 1987 then? Also Deborah Gianoulis must’ve taken a break from ‘JXT to report for WPTV at the time... She must’ve been a one-year-stint, because she headed back to Channel 4 shortly after.
WPTV must have joined the Florida News Network. Stations in that group (WJXT, WPLG, WTSP, WFTV were some of the others) would often donate their reporters to the other stations for big, statewide stories.

I'm thinking that this occurred around the time that WMAQ's Ron Magers and Carol Marin were having issues with their station adding their version of a clown, Jerry Springer as an ordinary potat...er commentator.
A timely video, considering that with recent acquisitions WGN will begin to have clown commentaries in earnest. Insert Boris Epshteyn reference here.

The KTVK video is pretty good. The days when local TV actually aired major college football games...
That sponsor bumper is pretty familiar-sounding, too...
And that cue lives on in 2017, in snarky sports videos.

WXFL news update 1987:
Lug nuts! Tyahs ain't pretty!

A collection of opens from all the "Big Three" stations in Omaha, circa early '90s. Includes an unknown KMTV theme.
I love those first three KMTV opens. I've been wanting to see those since I saw a tease left after a Jeopardy! episode posted on YouTube. The musical signatures don't seem to match any of the known news music composers, but rather that of Nebraska's own Chip Davis of Mannheim Steamroller.

I was driving in Bethlehem and saw a lottery ad on a digital billboard aside the Hill to Hill bridge; it had WPVI's logo on it. Either it was a mistake, or 6 is about to get the lottery drawings back.

Those spots have pretty good production values...and they are med related.
What does that tell us... my "TV Sales 101" students???

That open is ALL over the place. "Where the Experts Set the Pace!"

This WDVM report from 1984 has a guy named Paul Anthony doing the weather. Is this the same Paul Anthony who did the announcing for stations like KXAS, WLNE and WISH-TV? His voice does sound similar (albeit a bit deeper than the announcing).
Definitely. He's based in the DC area, he announced Washington Week on PBS for long time.

Sexy little 80's-dance-club-meets-news sounding early 90's theme from WILX. Production music? Any clues?
Reminds me of KXTV's late 80's look.

Big ratings shakeup in Seattle. KIRO is now #1 in almost all the key spots. Looks like KING is paying the price for all the changes/cuts it has made.

Don't let the WFXT debacle fool you, Cox is still a really good group.

But such a deal would be LADEN with conflicts. It would likely put WTSP on the block so a real owner could undo the damage...
Yeah, Sinclair would be such an improvement. You know they would snap up all the conflicts they could, including WTSP.

Think The Weather Channel was the first to name winter storms? Think again. Here's WFSB in Hartford, CT covering Winter Storm "Ginger" way back in 1996.

Just published by yours truly. Enjoy
'CNN' and 'NBC Today' as "interpreted" by Aussie comedy show Fast Forward (from my 1990 tapes. Anyone who remembers Desert Storm should get a kick out of them.)Bobbie Battister in Atlanter. And who could forget:

Found some more WBIR, one of the earliest uses of the "craft shop 10" which had, fortunately, not yet found it's way onto the news logo. Highlights include a very serious cut of Newsmark (which is rather juxtaposed next to that heart), and future subject of Trump's nightmares Jim Acosta.

EyeOnTV's back; among his additions, this, the first real artifact of the 1988 affiliate switch in Knoxville.
The only video related to this event up until now was...this. Now, at the end of this parable, there was implication that WBIR had made a big mistake ending their long-standing partnership with CBS in order to hook up with NBC, now coated in that Cosby luster. It wasn't a mistake, though; WBIR would eventually become one the country's most dominant stations.

I’d be stunned if that wasn’t a Tuesday theme.
