No, but you got another person not feeling the Olympics.

Whoops... [MEDIA=instagram]BfatQRrnP_j[/MEDIA]

WMAQ at 35, 1984: The news portion of the retrospective begins at the 16:45 mark.

Besides a couple of promos and 4:30, I believe this is the only other YT clip from WLS's On Your Side era:

Am I the only person not feeling the Olympics this year?

Shon Gables is the late Amanda Davis' replacement at WGCL/CBS46 and Karyn Greer will do noon and is now head of community outreach. http://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2018/2/8/struggling-atlanta-station-hires-new-anchor http://radiotvtalk.blog.ajc.com/2018/02/07/cbs46-names-amanda-davis-replacement-shon-gables/

A portion of the open they used during those graphics appears on this demo reel: I know according to site members that their L3’s were ginormous - they were taking up the entire bottom of the screen!

It was Electronic Graphics and Design of Dallas (which I know did WVIT). Not much exists of them these days even in print materials. And this video has a couple examples; WEAR being ripped off by WTVY (both in this video) and WJHG thinking it's in Baltimore... [MEDIA=vimeo]244566783[/MEDIA]

The need for more News Team 4-era material (1990-early 92) is still palpable.

I would love to see more opens from this era. Linda... we miss you. The golden standard of journalism in Oklahoma but I'm glad she's enjoying her retirement.

More KFOR from 1993...but still with the Gilmer custom theme:

It's not that, I watch for the sports but to me it has been boring. I even thought the RIO games was boring as well.

It's America's performance, or lack thereof.

Ah yes, reporter-fugitive Shon Gables.

Still on a Utah kick. Here’s some interesting snippets I picked up: I might also add that the middle clip is a 6-parter of all news reporting and no opens. However, it’s the only possible footage of KTVX during that time frame online. If I could take an educated guess on what their image was like at the time, they were using Ed Hopkins (definitely) and some Non-Stop package (maybe First News?)
