Samantha 2876 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Turns out the channel with the Vicki Van Meter KNSD video has a couple more. No full opens, but the rarity of these clips makes them prime viewing. KPHO, showing their early 1990s (to March 1994) look. Reporter Sergio Pedroza had previously worked for KTVW: KWTV: KRQE: Clips from OKC and especially ABQ are extremely rare (this is the first clip of KRQE between KGGM in the late 80s and Balls and Walls in the mid-late 90s), so this is awesome to see. If only we had some of the other rarities: KUTV, KTVX, KFOR in the early 90s... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jess 1110 Posted June 26, 2017 Author Share Posted June 26, 2017 Dunno if this got posted here but this is a full KUSA newscast from 1993, with a full close with some of the best B-roll editing I've seen on a long close. And I hate to be controversial here, but There's No Substitute > Third Street Music theme. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=cfcGLmWMWXU;m=49;s=58 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C Block 1487 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Thanks for posting. I came across it a while ago but never posted it on here; wasn't sure how much interest there was. That video would have been not too long after they moved into their new building on Speer. It's a little before my time, so I can't believe how awful that set originally looked. What's also interesting is that 3x3 grid design still appears in certain places all over the inside and outside of that building. And I hate to be controversial here, but There's No Substitute > Third Street Music theme. Sacrilege! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, that's a lame name for a newscast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnoxvilleTVFan 285 Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 We take you to Dothan, Alabama and a rare look at WDHN. In 1990! There is no news open, however. But you are checking out a rare clip of a WDHN newscast from that year. The news anchor, Linda Scott, formerly worked for WSFA in Montgomery during the 1980s. An unknown theme piece can be heard at 3:08 into the video. And speaking of WSFA, here are a set of promos celebrating 35 years as aired in 1989. A number of WSFA employees including legendary WSFA announcer Carl Stephens make appearances in these commercials. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9jqhkOTzmQ Here is more News 12 Long Island. This time, it is from 1988 via a director room feed. While News 12 Long Island was the first 24-hour local cable news channel in the nation, News 12 Connecticut started in 1982 as a local organization channel and would go on to become the first regional news channel in Connecticut. Here is a clip of News 12 Connecticut as recorded back in the 1990s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I normally avoid this channel but the original material is on Facebook...and it's Pete Rose, WKRC sports reporter!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samantha 2876 Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Who can forget News! News! And more news! At least translated, this has some comparisons (KOLR in the early 90s). Yeah, WSCV's "news, news and more news" was pretty bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also found this WPTA 1981 raw video with a "21Alive Newsroom" logo animating at the beginning. Did it animate like this in the actual news open?

onthesea 292 Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 WRDW, 1998. I'd like to get that Image News cut on the talent open. It's just marvelous! PD: it looks like it's from Series 3, according to the News Music Now site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChesapeakeTV 310 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 KLAX in 1995...good-yet-corny 3D graphics? Original logo still in place? The One and Only? Oh yes. I'm starting to think the NMSA's dating is switched...from the compilation jacky9br did, Ultra News was being used in the 31LAX era...which comes immediately after this.

The 31LAX era had a news package that didn't debut until the mid-late 90s *and* Hearst-inspired graphics. Yeah, that's probably accurate.

Info Junkie 1285 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 And 16 minutes of the WLVI News at Ten from 1992! That's a different "56" in the lower thirds of this newscast. I also wish we had an open from WLVI during its first year of "The Ten O'Clock News" and its final year of Gannett ownership (1993). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onthesea 292 Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 An interesting interview with Chet Curtis and Natalie Jacobson that aired on the former WCVB magazine Good Day!, then hosted by Eileen Prose, around 1985. Also, an interview with Dick Albert, from around the same time: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
