Why/how would she be doing a 10am show? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWUpdate 1290 Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 By the way, here's a clip of KTVK's Good Morning Arizona from 1996 -- you'll see some similarities (although not nearly as much as KBWB, which adopted KTVK's format lock, stock, and barrel in the late 1990, but whose footage from that era has never made it online, at least as far as I know): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From that same account, a CLTV open from the late 90's, back when they were based in Oak Brook, IL, a decade before shacking up with WGN. Their former home, a business park, has since been torn down. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWUpdate 1290 Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Speaking of CLTV, we've already seen a 2003 clip of the cable news channel in this thread, so here's one from 2004: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The overall style is very similar to the well-known "Team to Watch" KNXT promos from a few years later. I wonder if they were produced by the same company that had switched clients in the meantime? (I remember reading that the KNXT promos were done by Collier Concepts.) Edited November 18, 2019 by WWUpdate 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly off from WUSA and Sky News used it too. But many are those promos too good to resist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds Tuesday but I don’t think I’ve heard that cut before. That's the theme called "Tuesday2". It was used on KGTV and WAVY. http://www.southernmedia-nmsa.com/#3,1,251 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10Viewer 319 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 The music in the WISC newscast must have been distributed to CBS affiliates. It was used in a 1981 WTVJ promo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WJBK Detroit used it for Newscast bumps during their "2 is the One: NewsBreakers" era... Up I-75, WEYI Saginaw/Flint/Bay City also used this Affiliate package.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
