onthesea 292 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Last segment of América 2's 7PM news from May 24, 2001, anchored by Enrique Llamas de Madariaga. He was one of the anchors who popularized the conversational way of presenting the news (very common here in the South), always providing commentary between stories. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onthesea 292 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 This is not related to TV news, but it's a little bit strange. A movie opener from Canal 9 Libertad taped in April 1988. They were using the well-remembered ABC movie opener from the "Something's Happening" campaign, but with the 20th Century Fox theme. Back then, Argentinian TV channels' identity looked like being stranded in the late 1970s, where Chyrons and slides invaded the screens (it reminded me a lot of regional television in Australia before aggregation). The influx of 3D graphics came in the early 1990s. Telefe and Canal 13 were privatized in 1990 and were the pioneers (alongside ATC) to introduce this modern technique. By the end of that decade, it had evolved rapidly and improved significantly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fox2 190 Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 ITN Morning News 1989 - as a primary school kid, I used to sneak out of bed before 5:00am and was mesmerized by this program. Everything was cool to me - the graphics, the open, the presentation and the epic theme. What made the ITN Morning News at 5:00am special was its incorporation of elements only seen on this program - the ITN World News (which was broadcast to Europe the previous night) and segments from CNN (only seen here in the pre-subscription TV days). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=oQsmTWyiEXM;m=3;s=50 ITN also had these awesome updates at 1:00, 2:00, 3:00 and 4:00am (I remember them from the age of 12!): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=iummcxLpKC8;m=3;s=12 And a very early edition of the program in its first year, with some teething issues with the open and theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=9FjZlI3ptVE;m=7;s=13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onthesea 292 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Another bizarre holiday campaign, but from Canal 9 (1996), when Alejandro Romay still owned the station before selling it to Australia's Prime Television in 1997. All the channel's stars (including its owner) are disguised! This is one of my favorites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onthesea 292 Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 A full broadcast of the 12PM news on Canal 8 in Mar del Plata, Argentina from August 1991. Check out the opener: the music is great but would fit better in a program like Hard Copy or A Current Affair. *Despite cable was available there, Mar del Plata was essentially a two-station city, having Canal 10 as its sole competitor. Both stations cherry-picked programs from Buenos Aires, but they aligned with Telefe and Canal 13 later in that decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkolsen 1679 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 A fire alarm knocked ITV News at Ten (which is produced by ITN) off air. They apparently stayed on for a few minutes until a package ended and Tom Bradby explained that they were going to evacuate and may be back. ITV put up their break down slide and left the building. Unfortunately they were not able to get back into the building in time to finish the broadcast. ITV London’s nightly newscast, which are also produced by ITN in the same studio, did not make it to air. Instead an adjacent region, ITV Meridian, was piped in and broadcast to London viewers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onthesea 292 Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Portugal's Canal 1 (now RTP1) 8pm news opener used from 1990 until December 31, 1994. Surprisingly, this open belong to the time when RTP and its two channels were the only TV services in Portugal, but SIC and TVI (the two private networks) ended its monopoly in 1992 and 1993, respectively.
