Canal 13's promo of the "new" Telenoche, but not in 2015: it was 1992 when that happened for the first time. Back then, they said "we've the world's more modern cameras". That was a little bit exagerated. They really had the best team (anchors, reporters, producers, technicians, etc...), they were #1 at 8PM, and the quality of pictures made you feel you were in the 90s, but in countries like the UK, Australia and NZ, the picture was more clearer.

Hi. I was listening to the WSB 1991 theme on the NMSA and I thought you could have something from that period. As I said before, everything you post here is great!

A great filler used by Australia's Seven Network when they had exclusive access to CNN (1985) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXmjaW_gVFE The Alan Parsons Project song was the right choice for the footage.

Kristyn Hartman was (and still is) so beautiful. She was almost unrecognizable on that excerpt.

This channel was a pioneer in 16:9 widescreen television. Back then, it was unthinkable for so many.

It was a 4pm newscast. Back then, KMGH aired local news at 4pm, CBS News at 5pm and syndicated programming between 5:30 and 7pm.

WBZ-TV Eyewitness Sports updates anchored by Bob Lobel (from the mid-80's) They were relying heavily on computer graphics.

Brazil's Rede Record reports on Peter Jennings' cancer diagnosis, back in 2005. It's very interesting to know that he was important in other countries.

Australia's Nine and NZ's TV One sharing image campaigns, back in the 1990s. (Nine/One) Told Me Watch the World with Us

The 7.30 Report was a newsmagazine that started during the Gulf War, but aired until September 1992, when 'BZ replaced it with Entertainment Tonight.

América 2 was using what appears to be production music for its newscasts between 1992/95.

At 2:31 on this video is heard the theme Telefe used by its newscasts between 1990 and 1992. But I'm sure they never composed something hardcore like this. I'm suprised that theme wasn't rejected because of the standards.

Why KPNX was airing a 7pm newscast on a Sunday evening?

This is not related to TV news, but it's a little bit strange. A movie opener from Canal 9 Libertad taped in April 1988. They were using the well-remembered ABC movie opener from the "Something's Happening" campaign, but with the 20th Century Fox theme. Back then, Argentinian TV channels' identity looked like being stranded in the late 1970s, where Chyrons and slides invaded the screens (it reminded me a lot of regional television in Australia before aggregation). The influx of 3D graphics came in the early 1990s. Telefe and Canal 13 were privatized in 1990 and were the pioneers (alongside ATC) to introduce this modern technique. By the end of that decade, it had evolved rapidly and improved significantly.

Last segment of América 2's 7PM news from May 24, 2001, anchored by Enrique Llamas de Madariaga. He was one of the anchors who popularized the conversational way of presenting the news (very common here in the South), always providing commentary between stories.

French TV was always innovative. I like that!

Santo Biasatti anchors Canal 13's midnight news on Wednesday, April 21, 1999. The Columbine massacre is one of the headlines.

Yeah, he worked for a couple of years at WABC before going back to Boston in 1978, joining Natalie and Chet at WCVB.

The late Ramón Andino reads the forecast and wraps up an edition of Canal 13's 1PM news from Friday, March 29, 1984. (the segment starts at 1:02; part of the audio was deleted intentionally by the user to avoid copyright claims)

It continues to be a good station, but not as it was in the past (when Chet and Natalie ruled). I don't even know the faces or names of many of the reporters or meteorologists that work there now.

That's why WCVB is one of the best TV stations in the US.

ABC's Weekend Report was the 15-minute late night newscast offered by the network at that time. It was axed in the early 1990s, but I don't remember very well when.

You're awesome!!!!!

Here's the evening news open used by Canal 4 in Montevideo, Uruguay, used between 1998 and 2000. It was a little bit innovative because of the music; back then, electronic tango wasn't very common.

Lois Hart (then weekend anchor) teases some of the stories for KCRA's Sunday night news in November 1991. The music is marvelous.
