PBC5NewsUnova 65 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Here's 2 very rare clips from WXTV when their newscast was called "Reporter 41" sometime in the mid 80s or so. No news opens, sorry. Another one from the late 80s: Hold on, I'm not done yet, I also found rare stuff from WNJU from their 1989 news magazine program, "Primera Plana". Contains station ID, and a promo for "Informador 47" and "Noticiero Telemundo CNN". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=N1Tw2-ej1M4;t=38 Here's an even older promo of Informador 47 circa 1987 via RetroJunk. (If anyone happen to know the original YT video(s) that contain it, let me know. http://www.retrojunk.com/commercial/show/29925/wnjutv-informador-47-promo-in-la-mejor-y-la-mzas 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/127/#findComment-155045 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRolyPoly 2415 Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 KPIX Eyewitness News at 11:00 - April 9, 2000 Shouldn't this be in the 2000-present video thread? After all, this one is pre-2000.

Samantha 2895 Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 I'm feeling like Corpus Christi: A 1990 open with some theme of some sort, and a 1989 close with the WDAF 1987 Silvertree theme. It is worth noting that KRIS indeed is on that mythical list of Silvertree clients — along with WDAF and WWTV.

Samantha 2895 Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Similar service to the one that did the tobacco archive stuff, I think, maybe even the same one. (They obviously had some old station IDs on file.) I'd actually never seen a KTVT open from that era either — pretty nice. The second video has a longer close than the NMSA!!

ChesapeakeTV 311 Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 And which station is this? KUTV. Notice the mention of how the FCC's enforcement group "[didn't] make it to Utah very often". The reporter, Randy Ripplinger, also has a LinkedIn profile that lists him as working there from June 1973 to November 1978. This report in particular would have been from the latter two years of his tenure, since the 2 logo seen on his mic flag seems to have been introduced around 1976.
