WAVY 10 Fan

Had to create a new channel after getting a 2nd copyright strike on my main one; but decided to pick up where I left off with my new HRTVFan2 channel 1995-ish WAVY News 10 Intro: November 1995 WVEC Promo (13 News Extra; same source as the November 16 ABC World News Now):

Today was longtime WVEC weekend meteorologist Julie Wilcox's last day at the station https://twitter.com/VARTV/status/536518283567333376

Just heard about Skip's passing a few minutes ago on WTIB-FM. Adding my thoughts and prayers for his family and the WCTI staff that must be in total shock right now.

Put some new video up on Wednesday January 25, 1994 NBC Nightly News Promo (Kids Who Kill: part of a series of reports called "America the Violent"): January 25, 1994 Today Show Clip (Bryant Gumbel interviews A.C. Green) November 10, 1988 NBC News at This Hour (Connie Chung; only repeat in this group) March 23, 1992 NBC Nightly News Clip (the main feature being a report on the early stages of Ross Perot's Presidential campaign)

0814btm's channel has been putting up a lot of CBS Evening News broadcasts from the beginning of the Gulf War. This one has the entire first 10 minutes of the January 22, 1991 broadcast (where protesters from the AIDS advocacy group ACT UP crashed the CBS Evening News studio at the top of the newscast) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVp0iBHeDQo

WAVY opens the SportsWrap Vault again; this time posting a 1988 sports report by John Castleberry from when Norfolk's Old Dominion University thought they would be reviving their football program (it would be 21 more years before that happened).

A tweet on Robert Corbin's VARTV Twitter feed suggests that LaSalle will be a "multi-media journalist"; which I'm guessing will involve a lot of work with the social media sites for WVEC.

From the Sean Mc channel; a couple more news updates December 20, 1982 NBC News Capsule (Bill Scheckner): November 10, 1981 CBS Newsbreak (Bernard Goldberg -- who don't look much different then than now):

From stevations' channel 1986 WNYW Channel 5 News Close: 1986 WNYW Channel 5 News Update (poor audio): And somewhere, an audio compilation from WAVY-TV that includes part of a Channel 10 Eyewitness News broadcast...from July 22, 1969!!! (just after the Moon landing) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KlVDj0O4HLM

The Sean Mc channel has had a lot of interesting footage of late including..: March 8, 1981 NBC News Update (Jane Pauley) Christmas Eve 1981 WCKT NewsCenter 7 Update (Steve Rondinaro) Two 1979 WCBS Newsbreakers Promos 1. (featuring John Tesh and John Stossel) 2. (featuring Meredith Vieira) 1981 WCKT Season's Greetings/Happy Hanukkah ID (Lee Webb)

And the revolving door continues at WAVY; with the departure of Anne McNamara yesterday http://hamptonroads.com/2014/06/wavy-reporteranchor-mcnamara-leaving-station

VARTV reports Art Kohn (who had worked intermittently at WAVY since 1987 and most recently had been military reporter and Sunday morning anchor until around February) left the station (since his station Twitter was last updated on February 25; he may have been gone for a while).

Another 1991 WAVY News 10 tease with Terry Zahn (judging from the reference to defense cuts; I think this was the same day as the speech by the first President Bush I uploaded last week)

Thanks for the info. From stevations' channel; part of a (Saturday? Definitely a weekend newscast) WAVY morning newscast from 1996 (a brief snippet of weekend AM meteorologist Brittany Suddith; along with Andy Fox wishing Dennis Castro {a behind-the-scenes guy working as photographer and running the teleprompter} a happy birthday)

Preaching to the choir, there (since I'm 27; I'd probably add the Disney Afternoon-era/1990s Warner Brothers cartoons to that list as well). Elsewhere, longtime WFLA anchor Gayle Sierens announces her retirement effective at the end of May 2015. http://www.wfla.com/story/25671884/wfla-news-channel-8-anchor-gayle-sierens-to-retire-in-2015

Two more uploads today. First, a partial ABC World News Now (Nov. 16, 1995). Any idea who the anchor opposite Kevin Newman is? Then, an NBC News Special Report from 1991 during President George H.W. Bush's speech on nuclear weapons reduction

It's been an active couple of weeks as far as personnel changes in the Hampton Roads region go; and now WTKR announces Bianca Martinez will be stepping down as an anchor; though she will still be the station's military reporter and will also file special reports. http://www.vartv.com/pdf/WTKR_2014_05_27.pdf

Larry Printz, the automotive editor for the Virginian-Pilot newspaper (whose column is syndicated via McClatchy-Tribune Syndicate), recently added a role as WVEC's Automotive Editor http://www.larryprintz.com/about.html

1988 WAVY ID (Come Home to the Best-era)

Ariane Aramburo (co-host of WAVY's The Hampton Roads Show) announced yesterday that she was leaving for Alaska; and that today is (according to VARTV) her last day. (Ariane makes passing comment on her exit)

Something I was not expecting to see. From stevations' channel; here's a 1993 WTKR intro for coverage of a Norfolk Tides minor league baseball game when Harbor Park opened

From SuperDanDoodle's channel; a couple of 1997 WTKR clips: 1997 WTKR Blooper compilation: 1997 WTKR Talk It Out Promo:

From a series of uploads from November 1989; here's a WTKR News 3 tease with then-weekend weatherman Brian Hill

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt as the local media historian, then; but it's surprising (and rather concerning thinking about it) that there would be that much change to a special based on one Wikipedia edit. On a side note, it's really a shame WAVY never kept that footage up on their site (or uploaded it to YouTube).

From bpar73's channel, here are a couple of local sports reports First is one from WAVY featuring a young, slimmer Bruce Rader (listed as 1981; but the date is probably no later than January 8, 1982 due to Bruce making his conference championship predictions* {WAVY switched to "Gold 10" logo/Daily News branding in 1982 last I checked}): *For what it's worth, Bruce whiffed on picking San Diego over Cincinnati (and the weather ); and makes no prediction on the NFC Championship. Also, there's a WVEC sportscast with a young Scott Cash from 1989 (originally listed as 1987; but I mentioned based partly on the WVEC news intro from 1988 graphics/set being much different; as well as Barbara Ciara having returned to that station, this might be 1989 due to there also being baseball scores included in the segment):
