VHSgoodiesWA 303 Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 WSMV Scene News clip from the summer of 1990 on TV DXing, with WSMV engineer Tom Bryant (who was/is a long-time WTFDA member). Carole Simpson anchors the first 7 minutes of ABC World News Sunday on 4/14/1996, taped from KMGH Denver. No audio on one side, this was in that brief period in between audio splitters on my Betamax VCR. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/397/#findComment-263967 Share on other sites More sharing options...

WAVY 10 Fan 233 Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Found this August 1984 newscast from WBNS in Columbus Also found it interesting that the newscast included a story on the Columbus-based Cranston Csuri effects firm handling the CGI intro at the start of the film for the Republican National Convention prior to President Reagan's acceptance speech at that convention in Dallas (and the anchor struggling to mask disappointment that CBS didn't show the film or at least the beginning) 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/397/#findComment-263990 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jared DiCarlo 53 Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 (edited) Man, those late 90s Ackerley Group graphics were so good! Here’s some from WIXT (now WSYR) in 2001. And here’s the music that went with this package! It’s a Frank Gari production, I think.

WWUpdate 1292 Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Speaking of Headline News, the audio portion of the channel (not to be confused with short, custom-produced "CNN Radio" newscasts) was simulcast by a number of radio stations.
