Looks like on the website, WNEP is mixing the TEGNA with the Tribune graphics.

It doesn't look bad if you ask me.

Not to me either-- I like how the sunrise and sunset times are connected by a curved line above the sun icon (curving upward for sunrise, and downward for sunset). I also like how that wind speed figure has the arrow pointing to 6 mph, between the S and W on the compass (to indicate southwest).

KNBC L.A.: full 11 P.M. Channel 4 News Nightside late edition from Dec. 10, 1987 (Keith Morrison [still w/NBC News, last I recall], Kelly Lange, Fritz Coleman w/weather, Fred Roggin on sports, the late Jess Marlow w/a Cover Story, and David Sheehan, entertainment [Fritz and Fred are still on the evening edition on NBC4 today alongside Chuck and Colleen, IIRC; also includes short promo for Metro Traffic on Today in L.A. morning edition, mornings at 6:30)

KTRE Channel 9 (ABC Lufkin/Nacogdoches. TX): East Texas News evening edition opening, 1989

KNBC L.A.: 4/17/84 News 4 LA Nightside full late edition, w/Tritia Toyota, John Beard, Stu Nahan on sports, and Kevin O'Connell w/the weather (this came a while after Kevin's NBC game show Go was cancelled, and before he went back home to Buffalo [he's originally from there] to become the weatherman on WGRZ Channel 2 [NBC station of Buffalo]); also has opening of The Tonight Show w/the late Joan Rivers as guest host

Here is the other of those Morning broadcasts: Wednesday Morning, for Feb. 28, 1979:

From btm0815ma: an edition of the CBS News Morning show from 1979, not long after the flagship Sunday Morning debuted (this edition was Tuesday Morning, and was from Tuesday, April 17, 1979 [back in 1979, there wasn't just Sunday Morning w/Charles Kuralt, but also Monday Morning, Tuesday Morning, Wednesday Morning, et al. w/Bob Schieffer; all those were anchored far differently to the Kuralt Sunday show, in that they were more about the news of the day, and less features]).

Also attached are some title shots from that broadcast, from different shots of the set.

'83 MLB All-Star Game: NBC promo for the same, w/Be There music (Danny Dark announcer)

1983 Week 11 Seattle/St. Louis NFL broadcast on NBC, from the old Busch Stadium in St. Louis (preceded by a full edition of NBC's NFL '83 pregame show w/Len Berman, Pete Axthelm, Bill Macatee, Dave Marash and Ahmad Rashad; the first time I've ever seen that season's NFL pregame show from NBC)

Just why

That isn't much of an opening! As sparse as that opening is, one would think this is an NBC network newscast.

WLOX has the "News Now" brand.....here's hoping they don't get this monstrosity of a logo...

Why didn't WNDU (if they were so insistent on News Now) make their new title in the form of what KXLY (Channel 4, ABC of Spokane, WA) recently did?

Also, I'd definitely like for WLOX to go the way of KXLY as well.

1989-94 TBS Sports Atlanta Hawks title track (don't think I've heard this in full, ever!)

EPCOT Magazine, a daily newsmagazine show on The Disney Channel w/Michael Young and a different cohost each day (Michael Young's cohost on this edition from 1983 [the show started w/the advent of The Disney Channel on April 18, 1983] is Morgan Brittany of O-R CBS Dallas)

More on that from Wikipedia:

Don't think this was posted here: the premiere opening of Sunday on the Nine Network from Down Under, 11/5/81 (anchorman Jim Waley expresses similar goals to what the late, great Charles Kuralt expressed on Sunday Morning on CBS in 1979 here in America)...

In the memory and in tribute to the late, great Dick Ellis. RIP and Godspeed.

 

Didn't know he passed on until now-- what from?! The obit from KVUE states only that it was a brief illness.

Don't know if this was posted here:

WNBC News 4 New York expanded late edition, 1984; has Ralph Penza, Anna Bond, Sal Marchiano on sports, and Al Roker w/the weather

From 7/3/78: premiere of The New Tic Tac Dough on CBS Daytime w/Wink Martindale (this CBS show only lasted 7/3/78 to 9/1/78, and was a precursor to the more famous syndie that ran from 1978-86 [1978-85 w/Wink, and 1985-86 w/Jim Caldwell]; IIRC, this broadcast was from KNXT Channel 2 in L.A. [CBS O&O of the City of Angels, before that station became KCBS in 1984])

Heres another lazy one and this came from Memphis

 

That is lazy-- talent is only vocally billed (no talent shots)!

Nope, the 6pm show was an hour for most of its history, until Wheel of Fortune debuted at 6:30 several months later, but the anchor line-up was bring blown up by then, anyway.

So the premiere of syndie WOF later in '83 saw the evening edition pared to the half-hour it is now? Interesting!

To mark today's mayoral election in Chicago, let's turn back the clock 36 years to the 1983 vote, as seen on the 6 p.m. WLS news:

 

 

And I think that might have been an extended evening edition, owing to all the news of the mayoral election, among other things.

I am going to share something you need to see; it's a video of the CBS NBA wraparounds that aired as part of game four of the 1990 NBA Eastern Finals. In the video, it features legendary CBS Sports announcer Don Robertson doing a piece called "As The Playoff World Turns." You'll love this one and it can be seen at 1:06 into the video.
 

 

Been almost 30 years since I saw that for the first time!

Don't know if this was mentioned here: inside the news operation of the ABC in Australia, almost 40 years ago...
