Wow. A comedian on a morning show. Why does that sound so familiar?

How does a random catch all thread have a topic?

WAGA Eyewitness News at 5 - Jim Axel's final newscasts. This one's for you Jim, and Godspeed.

KTSM, El Paso; 10 p.m., 1988: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8mFEdLsR6Y

Joe anchored with Sandra on the earlier Saturday editions. Sunday at 6 (basketball pre-empted the 5) : Sandra solo.

Must have been a relic of when Viacom and Hubbard swapped one for the other.

An hour of WMAR's Channel 2 News in 1989:

Check these out.

That was quick. I just saw this on my feed and was about to post it here. Did find a 2003 promo WBNS aired for a CBS Town Hall special on domestic violence hosted by Dan Rather

We're getting off topic here now.

SAM's Extreme package. That set and graphic overhaul was way overdue.

I will put down $2 that he goes to WJAX/WFOX. Cox has poured so much money into that operation, and people from JXT and First Coast News have ended up there. Or he'll retire maybe, but I think he'll go to WJAX.

Here's a real biggie, WOR-TV's sign-on routine and news from July 29, 1984, 16 months after the move to Seacaucus:

Mike was in the open. John B. Wells does the Lincoln-Mercury commercial before. As long as Tegna owns this website now, it seems right that I should post classic clips from one of it's stations: A nightime version of their 1979 open, this would have have to been no earlier than 1982, as this was after they moved to their current studios: From September 1983, the first generation of "Clearly The One/The One For You": An updated open from April 1985, this was after they bought a chopper:

My brother has a Yeti cooler and a couple of the Ozark cups. The cups keep ice for him all day in the heat (he's a mechanic) and the cooler has served us well on many beach trips.

Gee, how many VO’s was Channel 2 using at the time? You got Roger Thompson dubbing over the open, Dude Walker providing the station’s commercial breaks, and Ed O’Brien on the news promos. They should’ve just kept Dude Walker!

Some rare bits of KAAL from April 1989, I've heard this theme before on CJFB's Newsline, what is it called? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=lQ-dng3IcBM;m=26;s=4

I prefer Bubba Kegs. They stay cool or hot very long. Frequently ice will last over 24 hours.
