Along with 18 minutes of KIMT's 10pm news in 1994, you get a Buick commercial voiced by Ron Rolland and a commercial for Rod Grams's US Senate campaign (yes, that Rod Grams)!

Wow, the whole 10-minute version in one video AND high quality!?

Consider that it was only for three years, essentially, that KMSB had no umbilical cord to anybody. I especially can't see it now in this environment of station consolidation. Economically, Tucson isn't exactly Phoenix.

KDNL News 30 teases from 1997 sampling the station's Vance look:

Mid-90s KMSP is rare as heck!

No open, but this is one heck of a KTVM jingle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=XbfupMvEjpE;t=721

Time to get the news from WSAV NewsCenter 3 in 1984: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=qYyj1aWJ0JE;t=339 There's Cablevision News from Yonkers, New York, in 1991, using Network Music's Action News track: And here's some KPNX election coverage from 1996: And a bonus ad read by Al Vanik:

That is one groovy Channel 3 News logo!

A variety of Salinas-Monterey market local news stories from 1987 on The Grateful Dead: Features include the KMST set of the era and some pre-TVbD KSBW elements.

The open to a 1991 Kentucky gubernatorial debate, which was produced by TAB — the Television Association of the Bluegrass (all the major commercial stations in Lexington) and aired as a roadblock across all of them.

It's more KPNX from 1996...except a change seems to be in the air, as a new variant of the logo with NEWS in the state outline is beginning to appear...

Very evident the attempt to tie in with the network news theme and the network logo, too.

A close to WAVE TV News in 1987: Kentuckiana weather got so bad that summer that WLKY was knocked off the air at one point: It took them until next morning to get full power:

Found it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=64JmPFJd_pY;t=2386 There was another in that series, too, I believe.

Delaware's cable "First State News" in 1984 used TM's Count On Us:

More of that CFN stuff... This is a good piece because it shows how CFN was operated (a smaller operation than AFN or BFBS, which we've seen before). It was the final Canadian-produced program before yielding to AFN as Canadian Forces Europe wound down. It is from 1994, not 1992. It discusses briefly how the loss of the Olympus-1 satellite caused them problems, too.

This guy? Nice ID!

KSTP in 1987: Clips from the opening of WCCO's communication center in 1983 and (first video) a historical special from then. "On the Move" was the theme — and likely the three-note signature to WCCO 1983:

It's not American, but old military news programs are among the highlights of any YouTube collection of news specials simply because the material is so rare:

The need for more News Team 4-era material (1990-early 92) is still palpable.

More KFOR from 1993...but still with the Gilmer custom theme:

KEPR in 1993...kind of forgettable. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=MMJwMmEUtIs;t=271

KRTV tease in 1992: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=6K4qr6JnZto;t=420

The signature definitely sounds like it could have an image to it. Neither station used Peters or Silvertree, so those theories are out. I wonder if this might be Tuesday...some of the instrumentation reminds me of the later Tuesday stuff and the Network Industrials...
