The KSAZ 2018 minute image song is noteworthy if only because it only says Just You Watch, not Just You Watch the Best... Also note the clever use of the large screen on the news set in the beginning! The original slogan was simply Just You Watch — but it hadn't been just those three words since its first year as a campaign, in 1999! (And yes, we have the original.)

WorldNow/Frankly just needs to go away ...like 5 years ago. They've become the new Internet Broadcasting System (minus the channelX0000.com sites. The thing that annoys me to the highest heaven is how distant stories are badged LOCALLY by Google searches... For example, if a Trader Joe's opens in Nashville and I'm googling it in Pensacola, then I'll get a search result from FOX10TV.com with the WSMV.com story seamlessly integrated into the WALA site. If it was a generic story, my hopes would be up thiking Trader Joe's was opening locally (when it happened in Nashville all along...)

From 2000, the first edition of WCBS's New York Live! (4 p.m. news), during the station's "Information Network" era:

Interesting, the new video display on the ABC News set was only temporary. The smaller, flat video wall that was set closer to the desk was apparently just a placeholder while a new, curved, seamless display was installed behind it, replacing the vertically-mounted monitor wall.

With regards to KidsClick, it really doesn't help that WarnerMedia, Disney, Viacom, and Comcast own about 90% of the worthwhile stuff aimed at that demographic anyway and probably won't let them touch most of it. (Though Warner Bros., because Time Warner was a dysfunctional mess, has long shown a willingness/obligation to loan out the Ruegger and Timm/Dini shows, I am not sure they'd loan out their Looney Tunes/MGM/Hanna-Barbera crown jewels to anybody, or if that stuff is "too old" or what)

A few days later, the full, deadly extent of the 1995 heat wave had become apparent:
