Could 9/7/81 be the day KPIX debuted the “And You” open?

Interesting miscue in the open video where we see that it was produced 9/7/81...

New from my VHS tapes. KPIX Eyewitness News open and close from January 24, 1982. This was the 6:30PM newscast that followed Super Bowl XVI, a super bowl in which the 49ers won.

Another one jumps off the Titanic...

Even though 36 is with Nexstar, you don't see KXAN as an NBC O&O?

WPLG's special report on the approaching hurricane Andrew, 1992:

KNSD's sports director Jim Laslavic is retiring after 30 years tonight. Former anchors Marty Levin and Susan Taylor are coming to join him on the set one last time. https://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/sports/Jim-Laslavic-Laz-to-Retire-San-Diego-Sports-NBC-7-KNSD-505375821.html

30 minutes of work instead of 2 hours. Hard news instead of The Bachelor recaps and viral videos. Getting to waking up in the morning at 8:00 a.m. instead of 3:00 a.m. Reporting for 60 Minutes, which is the highest profile program in TV news and something he'd be able to do into his 70s. Obviously he chose to stay at ABC and will probably make a lot more money than he would have at CBS. But it isn't as if there were no reason for him to consider CBS's offer. In fact, according to the NY Post's reporting, he did indeed consider the offer.

here's something you don't see every day... an anchor appearing on a competitor... KXTV morning anchor Mark S. Allen appeared on KMAX's Good Day Sacramento (his former home) to commemorate the retirement of GDS anchor Marianne McClary.

26 years ago today, TVI (one of the independent TV networks in Portugal) was launched.
