sfomspphl 453 Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Earliest KTSF newscast. [MEDIA=youtube] hQaCiz84KOI[/MEDIA] As long as we're down that path, here's the image music the theme is based on (dates to the late 80s) And a longer version of the news open - one of the underrated themes in Norcal from the 80s (this one, KNTV, KCRA among them) Plus, here's a KICU ID that's basically the KPRC 80s news open almost in the clear - from 1988 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=afeJJOk__KM;t=26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Info Junkie 1285 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Here's a 1983 WTVH newsbreak with an unknown theme. Their graphics look like the same ones from the 1970s, hence the old "5" logo (Meredith made the "5"s less round by the early 80s) and what looks like Dolphin Productions graphics. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy, that's the tail end of Production Music: Industrial Power, better known as the theme of Independent Network News from 1980-1984. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ntropolis 593 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Been waiting for digitaldave to post this again... I saw it a few years ago but it was taken off of Youtube. WAVY's "5:30 First News" open from 1992. My guess is that this came out in 1989 when the 5:30 newscast debuted. Certainly channels what then-sister station KXAS did with the "Night Team" opens... music intertitled in between the story teases. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samantha 2878 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 FINALLY! I've only seen that logo once before — a one-second billboard shot in KCNC's The Big Switch special. (No, seriously!) It was ditched when KNXV became the full ABC affiliate just months later. Apparently the GMA promo is not alluding to KTVK airing GMA out of pattern. For whatever reason, KNXV began airing the show on an hour delay when it was picked up in late August and was only able to clear it in pattern by the time this aired. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
