VHSgoodiesWA 303 Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 I have four hours of KIMA Yakima taped on 9/11, but it's only Dan Rather (no local cut-ins). There were occasional crawls with closure info and phone numbers for the American Red Cross and various other organizations. Other than that, I have 8 hours of CNN taped that day, which is all archived on YouTube anyways. My recording begins about a minute before the first tower went down. Remember that this was Pacific time, and there weren't a lot of people rushing to find a tape at 5:50 in the morning when the first breaking news cut-ins went off. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/398/#findComment-264607 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Hill 38 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 (edited) WNDU (NBC) 16's top story about Quincy Newspapers switching the ABC affiliate WSJV 28 to the Fox network (now currently H&I), forcing ABC onto the then low-power station W58BT 58 (now WBND-LD 57). The story was filmed live at the Concorde Mall, a once-popular, now-defunct shopping mall in South Bend, Indiana, on October 18, 1995: It may have given South Bend, Indiana a new Fox affiliate, although ABC expressed displeasure with it, because it was another excuse to air Chicago Bears NFL football games... ...but... ...in retaliation for Quincy Newspapers switching WSJV 28 to the Fox network from ABC in South Bend, Indiana, another ABC affiliate, WREX-TV 13 in Rockford, Illinois, had been forced to switch to NBC, forcing the ABC affiliation onto WTVO 17: Edited September 10, 2021 by 24994J 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/398/#findComment-264663 Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2006, the station is now WCWJ 17, an affiliate of The CW. 1977: 1982: 1983: 1986: 1987: 1988: 1989: 1993: 1995 (Monday Night Fan Ball): 1995: 1996 (finale newscast before the switch to The WB): 1996 (finale newscast before the switch to The WB): WJKS-TV 17 Face Off: WJKS-TV 17's ABC Affiliation Loss (1996): The 50th Anniversary of WJKS-TV/WJWB/WCWJ 17 (1966-2016): Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/398/#findComment-264780 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared DiCarlo 53 Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 A WNYT newscast from sometime in March, 2003. Features John Gray (filling in for Ed Dague) and Lydia Kulbida as anchors. Howie Altschule is the weatherman, and there’s also a “Skiing Weatherman” report from Herb Stevens at Stowe, VT. Unfortunately, the tape ends before we get to Lars Lifrak’s sports report.

sfomspphl 490 Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 (edited) WCCO May 1998 Here's an out of left field music package. For a about year or so in the late 90s WCCO used Gari's Newschannel, with the original early 80s cut for the open and close. I remember emailing the news director at the time saying it was cool - I don't think he knew it was a retro thing, just that it was 'a Gari package.'
