Last year CBS added a note to their 90s stinger, now ABC takes away a note from their late 90s stinger.

KDKA-TV Eyewitness News Update. Dec. 18, 1983 This one's a great find!

Today is WPXI 11's 63rd anniversary. A little history can be found here: https://www.pbrtv.com/wpxi-at-63/

Old news but I just learned this now that KDKA-TV revamped their morning news as 'Your Day Pittsburgh' from 4:30-7am.

Her farewell is tonight at 6.

I figured. I always liked how kd would traditionally say 'stay tuned for (name of show here)' at the end of the newscast. Many other stations don't bother, its a nice touch. I'm shocked they didnt have the 6:56 adbreak last night. That used to be a big ad revenue spot, especially during the PA lottery years and kenny ross. I guess with current world events the ad sales aren't optimal.

KDKA-TV seems to have eliminated the 6:57 intershow break between the news @ 6 and CBSEN @7. I'll have to see if they still have the 12:27 break before young and the restless.

Last night was Chase Williams last night on sports at WPXI in Pittsburgh.

WPXI weekend anchor Ryan Huston tested positive for Covid-19.

Longtime reporter Bob Allen retired from KDKA-TV 2 today at the end of the 6:00 newscast.

Former KDKA-TV (2) reporter, Christine D’Antonio announced today that she is returning to the air at WPXI (11) effective next week.

Silverman sowed the seeds that led to the big turnaround. The network was such a mess, it wasn't going to ve a quick fix.

Probably posted before, but lots of great promos here.... WTAE-TV 25th Anniversary- Dec. 16, 1983

Actually WTOV used it until the summer olympics in '88 when they debuted a new logo with the '86 peacock.

KDKA: 1993 series on the Pittsburgh radio scene at the time.

I just rescanned and dabl is on a new 2.3 and starttv is still on 2.2

DABL, the new 'live well'-esque cbs diginet came on the air at 2pm on kdka 2.0. Crossing Jordan and starttv were on at 1, martha stewart is on now. Soft launch I guess, samething happened with Decades.

Sad news indeed.

Last month KDKA quitely added a 2hr Sunday Morning newscast from 7-9. Bumping an hour of cbs e/i, joel osteen and a public affairs program. Both TAE and PXI have had neescasts there since the 90s.

A compilation of channel 2 promos, mainly from the 80s and 90s.
