C Block 1488 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Is this the headline bed that you're referring to when you say teletype? The music was swapped out in 2010 for something that sounded similar but was definitely more contemporary. The bed heard at the beginning here actually (I don't think) was part of the original package. The headlines were read without any music until the late 90s.

ChesapeakeTV 310 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 He's referring not to a headline bed, but an actual teletype sound effect that was run during studio shots. I know it was still in use in 1989, as seen here... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=kTyodEBzrck;m=5;s=43 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lazynetjunkie 34 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Even though WLS updated their music in 2013, they still use the same political cut they've been using since 1992.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oklahomanewsman 210 Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 KFOR-TV Custom Music Package by Wow & Flutter (used since 1997) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samantha 2878 Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 KFOR-TV Custom Music Package by Wow & Flutter (used since 1997) That's definitely lasted a while. Heck, it's gone through two ownership changes. I wanted to look up this company but got very few hits. It was the venture of Jerry Brunskill and Dale Goulett, who were in a band together called Limited Warranty. It was based in Minnesota until moving (at least partially) to Santa Monica in 2001. They were still around in 2002 and making music aired on UPN, NBC and ABC. For UPN, they composed Turn it Up, the ID and image package that accompanied their logo change; other clients included the TV series She Spies (which lasted two seasons). Their work for ABC was the Movie of the Week open. By 2006, the theme for the syndicated Rachael Ray show was also in their portfolio. In 2006/07, Wow+Flutter restructured as Gerald Brunskill Music (GBM), Wow and Flutter Post and Rellim Reeb Studios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samantha 2878 Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Unfortunately that music won't survive a 3rd ownership change Yeah...then again, that's not something unique to Sinclair. It wouldn't survive most buyers these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It probably wouldn't survive if KFOR were to be sold to Scripps or Raycom the only way how it survives is if Meredith gets KFOR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
