WLS from late August, 1990. Both videos are from the weekend that an armed criminal made his way into the station at 190 North State. The 10PM newscast was broadcast from the Sears Tower control room, seeing as the studio was on lockdown. Many well-known Chicago fixtures are featured...Sylvia Perez, Dick Johnson, Chuck Goudie, GM Joe Ahern, Paul Meincke, and a young Jim Rosenfield (prior to his move out East). Also featured is a short report from Roseanne Tellez and Robert Jordan on WGN.

WTVX "News Source 34" - 1/16/1983 (

)

Info: This is another rare newscast from WTVX, West Palm Beach's former CBS affiliate. I am digging the news theme, but I am not sure who composed the theme. Could it be from Jam, Tuesday Productions, or another company?

 

WTVX "News Source 34" - 1/14/1983 (

)

Info: This is a clip containing the final minutes of a WTVX 7pm newscast. I am also digging the WTVX closing theme they used.

Because I should probably pimp the stuff I upload. Or not...

-Kind of funny to see this considering just the next month they'd pretty much change the entire look of everyting, minus the set, on-air.

-Had never seen that particular version of the open before... nor do I remember it. That had to have run for a little while though...

An interesting, very brief, clip sample from several early KTRK personalities, circa 1989. I'm guessing it was for an episode of either "Good Morning Houston" or "Eyewitness Houston" ...

KTVL NewsCenter 10, 10/21/1980. The theme music is the NBC TV/Radio Newspulse package. Very odd long tease precedes the open:

 

 

Tobacco Archive: 1993 news items on the EPA and the tobacco industry. The newscasts are national and local (Richmond market):

Notably, WWBT used the NBC Affiliate Package for its First at 5 newscast and 11pm open, and WRIC used Symphony at morning and noon and another theme at 6pm and 11pm upon switching to TV8 News. You can hear the Symphony samples at 15:00 and 19:08, and the unID theme is heard at 17:21 and 23:51.

 

I believe WRIC used these themes from 1992-94 and Total News from 1994-96 or so.
