  1. Noticed WAVY-TV's YouTube page has its own archive section (most of the footage so far has been raw Chopper 10 shots from the first few years that was used); but I did see a couple of specials they did also included. 1992 WAVY Special (Under the Gun: Violence in Hampton Roads) 1994 WAVY Special (Stopping the Violence)
  2. stevations' upload of Hampton Roads coverage of Hurricane Gloria (mostly WAVY footage; with clips from WTKR and the Weather Channel toward the end)
  3. From SkittlesMan's channel; here WTKR's September 12, 1986 News 3 at Noon (I think Glenn {Corillo} Corey and Ann Keffer were noon anchors at some point in their tenure at 'TKR). This might be the earliest clip I've seen their "Discover the Land of the 3" theme used (different, more synth-heavy cut than the version in the 1989 newscast I uploaded a while back) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RrASY7XMyr8
  4. Another Hampton Roads reporter leaving the market, as WTKR's Mike Mather departs after his wife took a job at the University of Virginia [MEDIA=twitter]679784494648397824[/MEDIA]
  5. Surprised to see this. WAVY anchor Nicole Livas about to leave the station to relocate to D.C. (no word on whether she got a job at a station there; but it did mention Livas' husband had been working there and she wanted to spend more time with him) http://www.pilotonline.com/entertainment/tv/wavy-anchor-nicole-livas-set-to-leave-hampton-roads/article_0b4ccb61-643d-53ee-be1d-6a1238322432.html
  6. Seeing as Christmas is this Friday, here's the last local news related item uploaded from a movie airing on December 24, 1991 on WTKR. Here is a Christmas Eve weather update from (by then, semi-retired) WTKR weatherman Andy Roberts
  7. From NewsActive3's channel; here a half-hour segment of CBS' 1952 Election night coverage (quality's not too hot; but from an era with so little footage surviving; I guess you take what you can get)
  8. 35 years on Today and 65 years overall with NBC. All I can say to that is Happy Trails, Willard.
  9. Some WTKR promos from a Christmas Eve 1991 syndicated movie airing 1991 WTKR Project A+ PSA (when I started my current channel last year; there was a Project A+ spot with then-anchor Jane Gardner. This time, Ed Hughes got in on the act) 1991 WTKR Food for Families Promo (Jane Gardner) 1991 WTKR Insights on Alcoholism Promo (with a WTKR logo that was a transitional version from the 1986 logo to the one used when WTKR switched to the Eyewitness News branding)
  10. Early 1996 WAVY News 10 Tease (Les Smith)
  11. Haven't done a post with anything I've uploaded in a while. October 22, 1991 WAVY News 10 Tease (Alveta Ewell promotes a story on sexual harassment): 1995-96 WAVY News 10 Promo (Closed Captioning)
  12. From ntscbuff's channel; here's the February 24, 1986 CBS Evening News (Dan Rather anchored this edition from the studios of KELO in Sioux Falls, SD) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddmCpXO3Fwg
  13. And now it looks like Vanessa Coria is on her way out in about two weeks from now per VARTV [MEDIA=twitter]651529298906619904[/MEDIA]
  14. From Crommy5's channel; here's a brief 1985 WCBS tease with current NBC Nightly News anchor Lester Holt Until running across this, I was unaware Lester had worked there before jumping to WBBM.
  15. Not the best quality, but here's a clip of WAVY's storm coverage where Andy Fox...isn't quite ready when he gets a live toss from the studio
  16. Well, now we know why Deitra Tate was hired. Tiffany Savona's on her way to Louisville, KY and today is her last day https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10153692437033993
  17. Musical chairs in the anchor positions at WVEC starting on September 28. VARTV is reporting that Lucy Bustamante replaces Vanessa Coria (who was stepping aside from the anchor desk to do evening reports) on Daybreak and the noon edition of 13 News Now; Regina Mobley and Janet Roach will anchor at 4:00; Mobley will still anchor with David Alan at 5:00, 6:00 and 11:00 while Alan anchors the 5:30 newscast with Roach.
  18. Seems pretty unusual for a station to have 5 meteorologists on staff (Tate; Don Slater; Jeremy Wheeler; Tiffany Savona and Ashley Baylor). Rather curious to see how the assignment order shakes out.
  19. From pannoni5's channel; the October 29, 1960 WCBS weekend evening newscast anchored by Robert Trout (including an interesting discussion of a possible FIFTH Nixon-Kennedy debate) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_kBY-pUZ8Ys
  20. VARTV notes that WVEC Daybreak/noon anchor Vanessa Coria will be giving up the anchor desk to do evening reports [MEDIA=twitter]639236078667497472[/MEDIA]
  21. Looks like there are a couple other 1980s WAVY videos on that channel (literally just ran across that channel about 5 minutes ago) 1986 WAVY Promo (Don Slater; who it looks like had not too long ditched the mustache he had early on): 1986-ish WAVY Daily News Promo (Weekend Team): Also noticed in the video you linked to that about 30 minutes in; someone accidentally slapped a Proud N peacock just before the sign-off.
  22. Obviously, I'm far more familiar with his Buffalo Bills work from NFL Films footage from the early 1990s; and I concur. WIVB's Jacquie Walker had a touching comment about when she and a few others from the station made their last visit.
  23. Added the info to that video. Thanks. NewsActive3's been on a tear with rare newscast uploads of late; including... The first newscast of the ill-fated Harry Reasoner/Barbara Walters team on the ABC Evening News (10-4-76): The first edition of ABC World News Tonight (7-10-78): July 31, 1968 CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite (from Miami; no doubt in preparation for the Republican National Convention the following week): And from the local side, the December 20, 1981 edition of WPVI's Action News at 11:00:
  24. From NewsActive3's channel: 8-29-1986 KGO NewScene 7 (Van Amburg's final newscast): July 1985 WESH NewsCenter 2 at 6:00:
  25. Looking for another source, but VARTV's Twitter account reports that WTKR will be producing weeknight newscasts on WGNT (which they did 20 years ago with little success and currently do on weekends); thus competing with WAVY News 10 at 10 on FOX 43.
