  1. In case you didn't see it on the Discord server, here's the return of the legendary NewsTouch 25 from Brownwood TV Cable:
  2. I assume KTWO has done the same? That's gonna be a huge blow to them, as the Costal/Vision Alaska deal was probably what was keeping the network on air with Newsy availiable as a wider reaching and more professional alternative......
  3. Didn't they try this format for Face The Truth? It only lasted one year.....
  4. As I said before, the fact that the newscast has not switched over to the new standard CBS font while the CBS Weekend News has was a sign that Norah's days were numbered.....
  5. I don't believe we've seen this WEYI open before: On a side note, I can really imagine this cut of The NBC Collection being used for non-NBC stations if they removed the chimes from it!
  6. Another sign he's about to hang it up in original episodes? If thats the case, they'll pull a Judge Judy and keep the slots going with reruns!
  7. Some WLIO from 1990: Channel 63 from Alamogordo, NM:
  8. A station carried by few to no cable systems? Hardly a huge blow. As long as they've got their news producing deals for Coastal, NewsNet will somehow stay afloat, much to the delight of Amercian TV news fans in the Philippines.
  9. The fact that they have not changed over to the new standard CBS font (They're still using the slightly extended version from when Jeff Glor took over back in 2017) yet the CBS Weekend News already has, may also be a sign of Norahs days being numbered.....
  10. For the sanity of other members, please don't flood this forum with your OCD speculation on stations getting new graphics themes etc like you do in the comments on YT! Now here's a pair of classic Milwaukee newscasts, one of WITI from 1990: And another of WTMJ as NewsChannel 4 from 1991:
  11. There was a fifth, WTWC, that passed it over to its Fox subchannel in favor of Tamaron Hall just this September.
  12. As I expected, the CNN that Trump helped build is quietly falling apart....
  13. By October, the blue chroma key wall seen in the promo had been salvaged from the remains and transplanted over to the temporary conference room set while repairs were made on the burnt section of the building and a new set was being built:
  14. Here's a gold mine, opens from most of Benedek Broadcasting's stations from 1997, including some never before ones! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VkX-g829SLg
  15. The same type of situation happened in other New World markets, with the daytime shows moving to their new station 3 months before the full switch occurred. For example in Atlanta, Price is Right had moved to WVEU 69 in September of '94, which CBS was planning on buying before they struck an 11th hour deal with WGNX to affiliate with them.
  16. Here's a news pieces from Independent Network News and WNEW's PM Magazine from 1981 focused on early home satellite owner John Flynn, and it was even uploaded by John himself!
  17. Now at last, a full newscast from the NECN era of WFXT's news has been found:
  18. Frankly, I think they're afraid to cut ties with the loyal viewers of Blue Bloods and Last Man Standing, as they get higher ratings and ad revenue than the news!
  19. A compliation of 1990s news opens from all over the world.....made as a Yakko's World meme!
  20. Any word on stations replacing the now ended Judge Judy? Or are they all staying put and airing the reruns?
  21. That's because he wants much of the viewership to be from the always dwindling ammount of cable subscribers. Basically, he's acting like Randy Marsh in that South Park episode when he bought the town's Blockbuster store....
  22. If it doesn't get renewed even with this, I'll be surprised. It's the only first run syndie show not made by Entertainment Studios that gets a rating of less than 1!
  23. A rare full newscast from KGO using an even rarer theme:
  24. I'll just be the remaining "entertainment" shows outpace the news shows by a longshot....
  25. @Samanthawill like this unique kid-centric version of the Arizona's News People promo: Some rare graphics, commercials, and a closedown from the first station of Australia's Prime TV, RVN-AMV:
