Samantha 2895 Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 WCCO in 1991 with their custom "The Look" song, close to ALCS coverage. The headline opener strongly resembles the CBS Evening News of the era. No open. Home footage of the WXIA chopper covering a news story in 1989 plus WSB and WXIA news snippets (and opens) of the coverage.

scrabbleship 429 Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Some WTEN news clips from 2006 - not sure if this was after they ditched Chris Clausen and Primetime News as the open is clipped - I do notice the L3’s are from the “Momentum News” era though... Clausen was dumped a couple of years before Primetime News was ditched and the L3's changed in late 2005. Momentum News didn't come until the start of 2007 when they did a music change alongside an anchor shuffle. Also this was taken about a month before Terry McSweeney left the station to go back out west. The time when KSAZ gave someone good to the Albany market rather than bring a living debacle as when Kari Lake had her fifteen month detour to WNYT. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/187/#findComment-188210 Share on other sites More sharing options...

hmaxhanson 650 Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Not local news, but still interesting. A full weekend episode of Extra from May 18, 1997, back when show wanted to be more like Inside Edition instead of ET: Plus the weekend Hard Copy & George Michael Sports Machine from that day: Note that it was taped off KNDO/KNDU, yet another YT channel with stuff from Yakima/Tri Cities! 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/187/#findComment-188224 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samantha 2895 Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 The NewsCenter Network (KNDO) pleads for its viewers to "Send Us The News!" in the mid-80s. And speaking of the Northwest, did KGW's 5pm open look cheap-o for 1987... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=ANo0tYbzfkA;t=1781 From Northwest to North, a close to KXJB News 4 in 1992 (using the NMSA "1990" theme). And the close to the public news program "Prairie News Journal" from 1993.

WWUpdate 1292 Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 A chunk of NewsCenter 10 from November 1986 — with the Best Endeavours era towards its very end. Something just occurred to me: SouthernMedia's NMSA has KTSP using the NewsCenter Theme after Best Endeavours but before it adopted the NewsCenter II Theme. If accurate, that period must have been very brief, since I don't remember seeing any clips of KTSP with the original NC Theme (but plenty of clips with NC II). Or do we have something from that era after all?

(TV10 News era) October 1982-January 1983 ??? (NewsCenter 10 Mk I) January 3, 1983-85?? Best Endeavours 1985-86/87 NewsCenter II 1986/87-April 1989 "The Vision"-era themes Best Endeavours could have been introduced when Close left the 10pm show in 1984. We're also generally missing the 6:00 show, which was bannered Arizona Evening News in the years prior to The Vision. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/187/#findComment-188250 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChesapeakeTV 311 Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 And the close to the public news program "Prairie News Journal" from 1993. This is a particularly cool clip for me...the music for the close is "The Dream Is Always The Same" by Tangerine Dream, from the soundtrack to the movie Risky Business - which also has the two tracks used in the 1985 TVbD demo ("Lana" and "Love On A Real Train").

No opens but snippets of primarily KHSL and KXTV reports from the very early 80s/late 70s. The reporter you see here, Mary Bird, apparently died covering a news story in 1982.

Info Junkie 1286 Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Clausen was dumped a couple of years before Primetime News was ditched and the L3's changed in late 2005. M So who replaced him then? Chapin? If so that would be really cool if I could see an open from that time period, would bring back childhood memories. My parents always watched News 10’s noon news at the time. That KFSN open is clearly a knockoff of KABC’s at the time, as was their previous open (which copied KABC’s early ‘87 ID and WABC’s open from ‘87 to ‘94.)
