I've wondered about Craig myself. I was hoping that there would be a where-are-they-now article mentioning him, but I haven't been able to find it. By the way, here's a clip of Craig from 1978, when he was still at WMAQ:

By the way, if you've wondered what happened to the other longtime Chicago anchor in the clip above -- Jim Ruddle --, here's your answer: https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/catching-up-with-jim-ruddle_chicago/1979306/ And here's a 1976 clip of Ruddle from Chicago's WTTW, where he co-anchored The Callaway-Ruddle Report (the forerunner of Chicago Tonight) before joining WMAQ:

I originally used my MiniDV camcorder and transfered it to Premiere/FCPX and set the timeline at 60 frames instead of 30 frames per second.

FOX5 got the new news graphics package today that other O&O Fox stations got.

From Chicago, a 1983 WBBM news department sales presentation -- this is from the period when Bill Kurtis was anchoring CBS Morning News in New York:

Heres a 1990 KXLY news open (skip to 11:30) Nice to see that they are consistent with lackadaisical opens

Longtime KOTV anchor/reporter Rick Wells is retiring tonight after 30 years with the station. A career retrospective.

WHO in 1985:

Now theres a WKYC open I haven't seen before: KAIT from 1996 with News Series 2001: KEZI from 1980 with The African Suite:

Sadly (at least the Noon newscast) they used the awful cuts of C Clarity. Not sure what they were using at 4pm but that's what I saw when I went to playback today's Noon newscast. They're using the same cuts that they used for Noon at both 4pm and 5pm.

KFSM now has the Tegna weather graphics. Not sure if they fully debut the Tegna graphics today but here it is https://twitter.com/5NEWSGarrett/status/1222234909655420934?s=20
