  1. I don't know if anybody know this, but today marks the 30th anniversary of KCAL 9 News (Prime 9 News).
  2. And on top of that, KCBS copied their news intro from CBS This Morning.
  3. This is the second time that a tornado hit Music City. The last time a tornado hit Nashville was 22 years ago (April 16, 1998).
  4. Former WFAA Anchor/Reporter Todd Unger joined KXXV 25ABC as the stations main anchor. His first day on the air was yesterday. https://www.kxxv.com/news/local-news/todd-unger-joins-25-news-as-weeknight-anchor-at-5-6-10-p-m
  5. Former WRAL and CNN anchor Bobbie Battista passed away. https://www.wral.com/former-cnn-anchor-bobbie-battista-dead-at-67/18989732/
  6. In the memory and in tribute to former WRAL and CNN anchor; The late Bobbie Battista. RIP Bobbie and Godspeed.
  7. Would you believe on this leap year, it's been four years since Raleigh-Durham's WNCN and WRAL switched network affiliations. 'RAL to NBC and 'NCN to CBS. What a difference four years makes.
  8. IIRC, KWTV's chopper in the 1980's, 90's and early-mid 2000's was called Ranger 9.
  9. Here's some VINTAGE DFW Newscasts:
  10. Tegna Media and Gray Television strike strategic OTT Partnership. https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20200226005675/en/TEGNA-Gray-Television-Strike-Strategic-OTT-Partnership
  11. IIRC, the only two male anchor team that anchored the 11pm news on WCAU in the 1980s were Larry Kane and Alan Frio. This was back when 'CAU was CBS.
  12. Or maybe bring back "Eyewitness News" for both WOI and WATN. ABC 5 (WOI-TV/DT) carried the Eyewitness News name from 2001-06 and (WATN) ABC 24 also carried it as well from 2000-10 back when they were WPTY.
  13. I'm already enjoying the new Circle network. As a country music fan, I love watching the Opry Anniversary Specials and looking forward for Opry Live to debut this month.
  14. Any word on Nexstar doing something about WGNO? They need to bring back traditional newscasts instead of News With A Twist.
  15. Let's not forget that in 1980, Silverman was responsible for pulling the plug on three daytime game shows; Hollywood Squares (Marshall), Chain Reaction (Cullen), and High Rollers (Trebek) in favor for a 90-minute daytime show which only lasted four months.
  16. Could this be the return of The Tube? And now Tegna needs to acquire KTXD. I don't know when it'll happen but needs to.
  17. https://www.broadcastingcable.com/news/tegna-blasts-standard-general-in-letter-to-shareholders
  18. Tell it to "KYC management and Tegna, they're screwing everything up. They need to listen to the people. They want traditional newscast back.
  19. What are the odds of Standard Media acquiring Tegna? And If by any chance they do... what changes you would see if Standard takes over the company?
  20. Is there a way to download the themes from the NS library site?
  21. KXAS still uses their own chopper, Texas Sky Ranger. While KDFW, WFAA and KTVT have a shared news chopper.
  22. What about the WJKS 1996 Theme "Heroics"? Will able to find that?
