I believe it was NBC Primary at that time, based on both the news theme (which included the NBC sonic logo in it), as well as NBC programming (Tonight Show) - but I think this timeframe was close to the network switch, as there weren’t any network identifying promotions, but just generic slides for the network programs, and the Open didn’t include the earlier video with the shots including the Proud N logo J 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/357/#findComment-246498 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samantha 2895 Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 KOTA and KDUH switched affiliations to ABC in the middle of 1984. That noon open is the only one from KDUH that doesn't show a network logo. This is the only one of the opens we have for KDUH post-switch: The NMSA has a long-running and really understandable mix-up between two news music packages... It needs its own thread. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/357/#findComment-246510 Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnya2k6 171 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 (edited) 1998: KCOY anchor Don Strickland apparently had some problems with the stories not being cued up: (By the way...Strickland was lead anchor and news director at ABC Alaska in spring 1996; unfortunately, he failed to make any dent in the ratings against KTVA and of course the 800-pound gorilla that was (and still is) KTUU and by the fall, he was back in California) Edited June 19, 2020 by johnnya2k6 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/357/#findComment-246573 Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes KVUE the third station (that we know of) to use music from A Clockwork Orange as theme music for their newscasts (WVUE in New Orleans and WXIA in Atlanta are the others). Oddly enough, both KVUE, WVUE, and WXIA were ABC stations back in the mid-70s; the latter two have since switched to other networks, while KVUE remains with ABC...... 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/357/#findComment-246739 Share on other sites More sharing options...
