bmasters1 377 Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 (edited) 4 hours ago, SoFloTVClassics said: WTVJ News 4 1985 That WTVJ partial 1985 broadcast had a style of billing that I don't think I ever recall seeing from that former CBS station and now CBS O&O of Miami as WFOR (WTVJ being the NBC O&O there as NBC6)-- having the first name of each anchor to wipe on screen from the right in big letters, then having the full name zoom quickly down to the bottom under that anchor's likeness/video; the full title also got that treatment when all anchors were billed. I also liked how the announcer branded the newscast-- "This is News 4: #1 in South Florida." Edited March 1, 2023 by bmasters1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VHSgoodiesWA 281 Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 That's great stuff up there. 1980s Tri-Cities TV is hard to find. I was able to find a few hours of Saturday morning and weekday afternoon cartoons last September taped from KNDU and KVEW in 1986-87. Those ads should be posted soon.

MediaZone4K 1510 Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 (edited) WCBS's best graphic pagace and set look. They really gutted this after 1995. The "2 News" era also looked pretty good. Edited March 6, 2023 by MediaZone4K 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10Viewer 319 Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 WTSP news promo and commercial breaks from 12/31/88. That summer, the station debuted a new studio set and graphics, but kept the "Action News" moniker and theme music they'd been using since 1983. A few months after this, in April 1989, a computer espionage scandal rocked the market, resulting in the arrest of WTSP's news director and assistant news director, who had formerly been employed by WTVT and still had access to WTVT's computer network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a design from the late 70s/early 80s but debuted in 87. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10Viewer 319 Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 (edited) Most of a WTVN-Ch.6 newscast from 1987 and part of "World News Tonight". What's interesting is at about 31:00, there is a spot discussing WTVN's pending sale from Taft Broadcasting to another owner. WTVN was spun off to Anchor Media, which was founded by several former executives of Gulf Broadcasting and WTSP.

TheOneManHerd 553 Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 What a find: Chris Thomas' last sportscast at WBAL before leaving for an illustrious decade and change at WFLA. A bit of melancholy seeing him with Vince Gibbens, seeing how they both died so tragically young. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
