onthesea 292 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Canal 13's final segment of the noon news (includes summary and closer) from Monday, July 14, 1997. That midday newscast moved to 1pm in March of 1998, and expanded to a full hour, where it remains to this day.

ChesapeakeTV 311 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 15 minutes of KMSP's Minnesota 9 News in 1996 - no open, and the theme in the bumpers doesn't ring any bells for me, but Californians here may recognize one of the anchors.

Worrell ad for KVUE, I think this is different from the ones on compilation sets:  A promo for KTVV's local Joyce & Mel show: The ads are horribly misdated- that KVUE Ernest promo is from their post-Gannett acquisition years, which is definitely not 1982. My guess is 1986 or 1987.  And that KTVV clip from 1985 is very weird. My guess is that they had a previous package with that logo before this one: Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/238/#findComment-201070 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfomspphl 490 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 WCBS August 1984 5pm - great wide shot of the dual sets at the end when they throw to the 6pm.

Samantha 2895 Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 The WISC and WHTM early 90s themes were also written by Sheldon Elias who did the WBBM theme. Â A further offspring, though not done by Elias, was the KFDA early 90s package by Eric Enfalt which accompanied two generations of WBBM ripoff opens.
