Classic Video Thread (pre-2008)

From KRDO alumni Russell Sylvain's YouTube Channel, check out this 1987-89 news open from KRDO ABC 13 in Colorado Springs/Pueblo. WHERE WFAA MEETS KCRA. The Channel 3 Reports theme - Where the News Comes First by L. Earl Grizzell - was used on NEWS13. Moreover, KRDO had taken cues from WFAA, and made the aerial footage with anchor headshots and john hancocks on lower 3rds. Looks like the aerial footage was shot on film in the chopper to give the news open a big-city look. 

In the election eve aircheck, you'll hear the directors track throughout the aircheck.

That KSDK theme sounds like an affiliate news version of the '83-'84 'Be There' campaign

It is. WTVG in Toledo used it until switching to an updated version of Peters' "The Winners" later in '84.

Both are new overall. KIMA News Weekend Edition, New Year's Day 2006, with a younger Lisa Van Cise before she went to KING-5 and NWCN (Rick's daughter)

An early appearance of Dana Cowley in the first couple minutes of KAPP 35's 11:00 Report, taped 1/16/1989

 

And a repeat posting from the old account: KBCI Idaho 2 News 10 at 10, 9/26/2002.

A few things I noticed.

 

One; I think this might be the first time a full newscast from the WOR era has surfaced (at least, that I'm aware of) and why does Bear look like he's about to...relieve himself in the image that the algorithms at YouTube have chosen for the thumbnail?

 

Also ran across this today (mostly a group of commercials from an episode of Family Ties, but starts with a WAVY special report on a 3 alarm fire {don't recall seeing any local "special report" graphics from that era before})
