Have we had video of the 1 minute version of "Memphis & Channel 3" yet? If not, here it is!

This channel also has other neat Memphis stuff, including a dual sign-on for WLMT & WMTU from 1990: 

And a post-TVX influence id for WMKW, WCAY in Nashville had a similar ID:

And some WMC newsbreaks from 1992/93 for good measure:

Some rare WBBJ recordings from the collection of former anchor John Scofield, first up is this 1985 one with NewScore as the theme: 

There's also this 6pm newscast from 1986 which John anchored, using Cascom effects along with what I assume is production music: 

And theres this piece from his last newscast in 1992, which features part of an open from 1988 with the ABC Something's Happening news theme, and closes with the music from the first VidAmerica logo: 

ArchiveAnnex just unearthed what might be the earliest footage of Ed Hopkins ever: 

Before Chicago, Larry Moore did anchoring duties at KPIX: 

Here's KSFY in 1991 with the WPTV theme:

A bit of WDAY from 1987:

The same graphics were used up north at WDAZ:

What a shame. And yet users like Michael Pannoni can still create new accounts after being terminated.

I think he does that through the use of multiple email addresses....

WDBO in 1981 covering the opening of Florida's first Showbiz Pizza, includes the open of that newscast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tLuivRedaDU

Two newly unearthed classic Abliene opens on YT (with hopefully more to come!)

KTXS from 1988 using a Tron-esque graphic and the "Spirit of Oklahoma" theme: 

And KTAB using some kind of orchrestra piece of music: 

Obviously a lot of companies are wanting to flex their copyright muscles on YT accounts since they're still under a COVID-induced drought of box office money....

And as for VHSgoodiesWA, would you go to court to reinstate your accounts if you could?

That's great news (get it?)! Someone better now start archiving all his videos before his next and likely permanent termination! 

An ultra rare KFMB newscast from April 25, 1967, back when they still branded their news as "This Day 196X". There's lots of switching back and forth between color and black & white, mainly during commercials and field reports:

Well that's just bleeping great! I wondered why I had so many deleted videos on my favorites outside of Sloan's videos. I favorited many of his videos especially for KNBC coverage of the Dodgers 1988 World Series run and I think this guy also had the first hour of coverage of the 1989 World Series Loma Prieta Earthquake uninterrupted as it happened with the network quickly filling time with a Roseanne rerun from ABC as he said he was auto recording that WS game when he was at a college class. This is a damn shame! I need to save more videos!

 

Edit: Yep that was him. Arghh!!!

You just never know if you're video will be safe from copyright claims. You could be safe for awhile but then a big company like NBCU will want to flex their copyright muscles.....

Here's a full WBNG newscast from 5/28/1987, as we've learned this week, you should enjoy it while you can..... 

It seems to me that Perry Sook is a rather slow or old fashioned kind of guy. Remember, up until the assimilation of Media General, they were against online streaming of local newscasts and subchannels on their stations. 

This whole having NewsNation as a cable channel you can only stream through your cable subscription instead of an OTT network you can watch for free on a service like Pluto TV is another example.

KMBC in its later days as a Metromedia station:

KTIV from July 19, 1989:

And WITI from 1988:

Some WLYH clips from its waning years, by this point, they were only airing a 6pm newscast (the 11pm one was replaced in 1992 with syndicated programming): 

KMBC in its later days as a Metromedia station:

KTIV from July 19, 1989:

Here's future American Gladiators host Lisa Malosky at KDLH in 1986: 

There's a lot more rare stuff in this channel (mainly commercials and promos), so keep your eyes on it!

You like ONE FULL HOUR (and a bit over) of NewsActive3?

 

I talked with Scott and he said these Retrospectives are in commeration of NewsActive3 hitting 2000 uploads. He's got two more retrospective vids to come before resuming newscast uploads.

A full WHDH newscast from 1990 with the John Tesh theme:

I'll let this clip speak for itself. Your welcome @Info Junkie!

Some Hampton Roads news clips from September 1995 (as well as January 1997), worth noting is that it features the last days of TV 3 News and the first of NewsChannel 3 over at WTKR:
