I still think KDKA-TV deserves to be in the conversation to do a CBS Weekend News as well. 

Hope WNCN gets to do a CBS Weekend News Newscast. Fingers Crossed...

I was looking for We Got the Touch affiliate IDs, when I stumbled upon this video. It was a Newschannel image campaign for WANE-TV with a We Got the Touch ID at the end, also from WANE-TV back in 1985.

I wouldn't say NEW as since they implemented the gfx almost 9 months ago...

 

 

Thank you for telling me that MyNewsArchive. The only thing that was new is that KOLO switched back to Locals Only.

Locals Only has made it back to KOLO after a 4 year absence.

Is WTSP seriously switching to this logo?

 

 

What is with all of these ridiculous throwbacks?

 

 

 

That or logos that are slapped together:

 

 

 

TEGNA has no branding game.

 

 

Clear your browser cache.

At least WTSP’s logo looks better than this crappy logo.

This is from WTKR’s TV3 year (because the station did this look for just over a year) in March of 1995. With the flashy open that synced with “Global Village” by SAM (which WTKR Commissioned), this is the only news music by Stephen Arnold that I like.

News open:

 

Now I wonder how many people are going to complain about the Tegna graphics on the next Talkback 16?

Am I the only one that thinks they missed a good opportunity to reintroduce the steamboat whistle? (And steamboat footage in the back of the 5 logo?)

You are not the only one... The steamboat whistle sounding before the open was part of WMC-TV’s history for a long time. Gray should’ve recognized the steamboat relevance to the station.

I love the new look! Thank you Weeters!

Much improved. Now part of me wonders if this new logo is corresponding to a rebuilt news department at some point. Surely, Nexstar wouldn't go through the effort of giving this also-ran a new logo if they didn't have plans in place... I mean, fourth time is the charm right?

If they do rebuild the news department, it would be produced by WSYR since WWTI is a semi-satellite of WSYR-TV.

Take a good hard look at this logo...

Because Nexstar unveiled a brand new logo for WWTI.

What do you think?

Today (May 23rd) marks 70 years since WCAU-TV channel 10 signed on the air in the city of brotherly love, Philadelphia. To celebrate, here is a WCAU open from 1977.

WMAR in Baltimore is changing up in branding name to WMAR 2 News [Working for you]. IMO It should've just went as Maryland's 2 News. Anyway, here the new logo.

 

 

 

 

 

I like that Scripps brought back WMAR’s 2 that was used from the 1970s-Early 2000s

WNCN rebrands to CBS 17. I always thought that's what they should have been called after the affiliation swap with WRAL, not "CBS North Carolina". http://www.cbs17.com/news/cbs-north-carolina-rebrands-as-cbs-17/1048220823

Yay! CBS North Carolina is gone at last!! I’m guessing new graphics too, also they finally dumped Canvas for CBS Local by SAM.

Get a load of this.

Notice any difference?

I wonder how WTVD got on the list? I don’t see anything that Peters communications did for WTVD on NMSA. It could be the WTVD 1979 news theme.

65 years ago today, a Station on channel 43 in York, PA signed on the air, giving the Susquehanna Valley another choice for television other than WGAL. That is WPMT (signed on as CBS affiliate WSBA-TV, a TV sister to WSBA 910 AM at the time), which is the oldest UHF Television Station that continues to operate today that never changed it channel since sign-on (The first continuously operating UHF station ever belonged to KPTV in Portland, OR, now on channel 12). Here are some promos from WPMT in 1990.

I found this open from KCCI in 1988.

WRAL and WRAZ back on U-Verse after two month absence!!!!!

And since September 13th, WRAL and WRAZ were pulled from U-Verse

Edit: One month later.. Still out on U-Verse, Reached a deal with DISH

65 years ago today, A station on channel 27 in Portland, Oregon made history as being the first UHF station that is still operating today. That station is KPTV, now on Channel 12. Here is a ID from KPTV from the 1980s

WRAL and WRAZ have been taken off the air on AT&T U-Verse due to a retrans dispute. This has been happening since 5:04 pm Eastern yesterday.

Damn, he's been doing this for 449 years?!

I guess he did a story on America's independence from Great Britain
