  1. And from the same channel, another holy grail found, clips of KFMB's This Day from June 18, 1986: And a bonus, a clip from KFMB's original This Day back in 1964:
  2. Here's the opening to KSTWashington's Ten O'Clock News from February of 1988: And a WPTV Action 5 News special on the one year anniversary of the Challenger Explosion, along with the first segement of WPLG's 11pm news from that same day: How about something from a PBS station? KENW's Scene 3 News from November 1992:
  3. And here's some silent film of KIRO from September of 1958, when the station was only 7 months old.
  4. Now there's a station that's trapped in a time warp compared to your other uploads. They were using that same open (albeit as Channel 29) in 1993: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=HFIA_H4EjhA;m=6;s=28 A year later they finally replaced it with a more modern package that I can't find right now (in was in one of NewsActive3's compilations though)
  5. Now for some material from the sister channel to the one I found yesterday: Grab a box of tissues, here's WABC's 11pm news from just 10 days after 9/11. A very serious newscast, no happy talk or banter. At the end is a long credit role that acknoledges Don DiFranco, the station's engineer who was killed when the towers collapsed. Plus an expanded edition of Nightline from that same day: And as a bonus, the Politically Incorrect that aired afterwards. After 9/11, the show would do cold opens for the rest of it's run: Now on a happier note, here's a news teaser from WECT from February 9, 1986: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h=2;id=OLiyFX9nt6s;m=33;s=43 And a December 1990 KIMT newscast from the directors POV (you''ll have to click the link to view): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybRRrsOUotM
  6. And here it is, the news from 22 years ago tomorrow:
  7. I'm glad you enjoyed it! (the things I do for you people...) That was probably the first time I've ever seen a local TV station do their own late night talk show. You better download it soon, the owner of the video just had one of his accounts wiped, and I'm worried the same thing could happen to this account! Anyone else know any other stations that did similar show to PAM?
  8. Which was followed by a replay of that night's 11 pm news: WPTA's 6pm news from the last Sunday of 1999: An NBC News Special Report on the OKC bombing: Nightline from the same WPVI tape: Two thirds of the late news on the old KNTV from late April/early May 1994, with lots of program promos:
  9. I've gone video hunting again. All of these are from the same YT channel: The first 12 minutes of the KGO 5pm news from February 27, 1997 (just after this short lived look debuted): A chunk of World News Now with Anderson Cooper from March 2, 2000: A pop-up news teaser from KMBC from February 25, 1990: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=FlQHSUruFhg;m=28;s=34 From earlier in the same tape as the WNN clip, a promo for WPVI's Philly After Midnight, which was a reincarnation of AM Live/AM Philadelphia: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=xr4PuM1J03c;m=10;s=43 And the episode itself:
  10. Here's a tiny bit of WFRV from 1975(!)
  11. Easy, that's the tail end of Production Music: Industrial Power, better known as the theme of Independent Network News from 1980-1984.
  12. Speaking of which, here's WTTG using the beginning of the News Image close to introduce it's Metromedia Moive Club back in 1985: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=bRZsCvnONYo;m=12;s=5 Also the beginning of the video is the intro to the WBFF movie from that same day, introduced on-screen by some old guy who may or may not have been a friend of Nixon or Reagan!
  13. A Sinclair-Deerfield-Cunningham-Howard Stirk-New Age station.
  14. The jingle on the KGMC station ID was JAM's "The Spirit of New England" jingle package, one of my favorites. It likely dates back to 1995, when KGMC was Fresno's first WB affiliate, airing about 8-10 hours of barter shows programmed from KMPH, and brokered religious programming and infomercials during the rest of the day. By the time this video was recorded, KMPH had moved C43's entertainment shows and WB affiliation to KNSO 51 in Merced, where it remained until New Years Day 2001, when it swapped affiliations with Telemundo affiliate KMSG 59 in Sanger (which became KFRE, which it still is today as the market's CW affiliate). Judging by this video, I can assume that KJEO likely bought time on KGMC to air time-shifted rebroadcasts of its newscasts.
  15. What? Something from Rick Thomas that's not from LA? Well believe it, it's the close of a KFMB newscast from 1975:
  16. A bit of WBNS from November 1993 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=zi3V2I9uE7U;m=30;s=11 and from 3 months later, with voiceover by a young Eric Gordon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=tXWhEy0kCaM;m=34;s=9
  17. I sure hope so. I fear this could end up being another channel that uploads just one good video and never uploads again. WILX from August 11, 1990, still using Tuesday's Action News theme : WWTV-WWUP in 1991, using the same theme and what I think is a fantastic open for a small market station: WFMJ from June 21, 1982 using Telesound's Action News Theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=JwBJlcrwpB8;m=21;s=45
  18. Here's a real treat, WBKP from 2000 using Move Closer to Your World. Yes, really. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=l7M9Z6USG9Q;t=5
  19. A WOWT ID from 1982 using the tail end of the movie intro music from the Field Communications stations, leading into about 10 minutes of CBS Nightwatch. Keep an eye on the uploader's channel. I have a hunch some rare Omaha goodies are about to come from it!
  20. Apparently WGCL is not ready to give up on news just yet. In 2 weeks, they will launch a 9pm newscast for now full sister station WPCH. And knowing the struggles GCL has had over the years, the new WPCH newscast will be the highest rated of all of 46's newscasts. http://www.adweek.com/tvspy/cbs46-launches-9pm-newscast/194914
  21. Even if Kelly is really promoting a clean slate, and her show was absolutely perfect, too many people remember her past and they won't bite for the new Kelly. The question now is, if NBC does abandon ship on MKT, when will it happen? I still say they'll throw in the towel in May (but not before more cringe-inducing moments and a retooled Sunday Night show after the Olympics) to get their moneys worth, but I'll be surprised if they give up at the end of the calander year. I'm still waiting for SNL to offer up a spoof on MKT (though in this era of SNL, it's not likely)
  22. Ah yes, the early 80's was the period when KYW was deep in the ratings basement following the break-up of it's 'dream team' (Jones, Leonard, Savitch & Weissinger) and the notorious "Direct Connection" flop (nicknamed by many locals as "disco-news). Here's a newsbreak from early in 1982, when the station brought back the "007 Takes The Lektor" theme used by Group W stations during the 60's & 70's: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=jreV7Ux0l3A;m=15;s=10 By May of that year, the station moved it's newscasts back into a news set, and began using And You (as used at fellow Group W station KPIX): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=z45gfXNDIE4;m=11;s=16
  23. Clips of WDAF, KSHB, & KCTV from March 1997: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=q4H492n44Nc;t=19
  24. A full WKEF newscast from it's last season with NBC:
  25. A KTVU newsbrief from 1978: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=JZGMAukbslk;m=51;s=28
