In the memory, in honor, and in tribute to a Buffalo news legend. In the memory of Irv Weinstein. WKBW 6pm 12/31/98 (Irv's Final Newscast).

Tonight, KBMT 12 Sports Director/Anchor Dave Hofferth is officially retiring tonight. Hofferth's final sportscasts is tonight at 10pm. Lance Edwards will take over as KBMT 12 Sports DIrector/Anchor next week. Happy Retirement, Dave and God Bless.

1. I wish Jerry Taft all the best in retirement. 2. I bet even money that the successor for the Chief Meteorologist spot will be Cheryl Scott.

Sad news out of the Twin Cities. Former WCCO Sports Anchor Ralph Jon Fritz (R. J.) past away last week after a long battle of cancer. RJ Fritz was 78 years old. Thoughts and prayers goes out for RJ's family and to his friends a colleagues at 'CCO. http://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2017/12/06/rj-fritz-dies/

This is not good. Cheatwood, now full time. http://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2017/12/20/headed-to-tegna

I bet KDFW will use the new theme for Good Day DFW, but FOX O&O (OSI Music) to continue on the evenings.

Sad news out of Columbus, OH. 10TV (WBNS/CBS) Meteorologist Chris Bradley is back in the Hospital fight phenomena, the leukemia he currently fighting is no longer in remission.

I have previously uploaded the last WGNX News at 7:30pm (12/9/94). Two days before the switch to CBS. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=OUk9NzcKCJA;t=16 And this news update is from mid December 1994 when 'GNX (Now 'CGL) now affiliated with CBS.

Jim, I also have a request: Do you have any more newscasts or news open montages from D/FW, Austin, San Antonio, Houston, and/or other small market newscasts or news open montages from Beaumont, Lubbock, Waco, Tyler, Amarillo, Abilene, Midland-Odessa, and El Paso? As a native Texan, I would love to see more.

I've just now upload KXAS-TV's The Team To Watch Image Campaign (Audio). You'll Thank me for this.

Jim, If can find KTVT's special program about switch to CBS, as well as more vintage newscast from Houston, San Antonio, Austin (Hopefully KTBC (Pre-FOX)), please post it. Thanks.

Add KSDK to the list. http://www.ksdk.com/
