WWUpdate 1264 Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 This may be the only news open from Ted Turner's WRET in Charlotte that's available online. The station only began producing news in 1978, when the former independent became an NBC affiliate. The following year, Turner sold WRET to Group W, a transaction that financed the 1980 launch of CNN, and WRET changed its call letters to WPCQ. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWUpdate 1264 Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 (edited) A 2001 newscast from Pax station WVPX in Akron; this is how Wikipedia explains the station's news arrangement at the time (note that either the date in the clip title or the Wikipedia timeline is a bit off): Quote WKYC subsequently announced on March 28, 2001, the launch of a new newscast produced for WVPX by WKYC's news department but focused on Akron stories, and based at an expanded Akron bureau.[205] Launched on July 13, 2001, under the Pax 23 News banner,[204] the program was anchored by WKYC's Akron bureau chief Eric Mansfield, with sports and weather provided by Jim Donovan and Mark Nolan, respectively; both Mansfield and Nolan previously worked at WAKC in the early 1990s.[63] Edited May 22 by WWUpdate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
