KXMD KX11 Eyewitness News from 1983. WOW! It's awesome to see this very small-market footage pop up. Makes me have faith that we will find some vintage KXGN Glendive clips soon, too. That's one of my holy grails as a VHS collector - an entire primetime schedule and news from market #210.

 

Anyhow... WQAD NewsChannel 8 Nightside from December 1993

 

A KNDO Saturday newscast on 1/24/1998, originating from KNDU

and Tonya, Tonya, and Tonya are the themes of this KGW clip from 2/8/1994.

Just discovered this WTVT open from the 90s and it was excellent. 90s saxophone, love that marimba like instrument, and love the way the set lights up when the announcer Charlie Van Dyke says "Tonight"

A couple of local finds:

 

KNDO 9/26/02 11:00 news with Sunny Jenkins

and Cynthia Schnabel on KIMA News Weekend Edition, 9/10/2000

but wait there's more: A NewsWatch 35 teaser is on this compilation of commercials from WSEE Erie, 2/24/1999 during the Grammys. This was from the C-Band Primetime 24 feed, thus the 800 numbers and "See CBS" IDs. PT24 had the local ads plastered over like they did with WRAL.

 

KWTX Region 10 News at 5:00; the 30th anniversary of the station's launch is mentioned near the end! (April 3, 1985; starts at 17:58)

 

KRDO News 13 Weekend 10:00 Report (December 30, 1984; link below)

One of the great things about searching for videos on YouTube is that you never know what you'll find.

Case in point: Stations that once had a news operation.

Well, with that said, I want to share with you a clip out of WTLW 44 out of Lima, Ohio which was a religious independent station.

During the 1990s, WTLW had a news operation and even used Gari's "You've Got 8 On Your Side" as their news theme.

So, with that said, here is a 10pm open when WTLW once had a news operation.
 

 

Vintage Dayton newscasts about the Miamisburg Mound mid to late 90's

 

 

 

 

Vintage Cleveland Newscasts about the Cleveland Press Final Edition 1982

WXYZ 11PM Action News Update, 11/17/1990

 

Some rare Liberty Weekend stuff! Today Show, 4th of July 1986, with the Parade of Ships, Gov. Mario Cuomo, etc. - and look at those Missoula commercials!

 

Morning news clip from KOMO 4 Seattle, October 1994

 

Excerpts of various Houston newscasts (January 1996)

 

 

 

 

KSAZ Fox 10 News at 9:00 and 10:00 (September 22, 2005)

 

KEZI Eyewitness News Weekend (January 15, 1995; starts at 0:54)

Forgot the KSAZ newscast had the 10pm newscast as well

WCBS Jim Jensen 1964

WCBS Jim Jensen 1994, 29 years later. One thing I noticed by the '90s Jim could not sit still and the camera operator constantly had to shift the framing so that the overhead graphic didn't cover his face. Jim was a real talent, to my understanding alcoholism was his undoing. Shame. Even in his more disheveled state by the '90s he commanded a classic anchorman and strong on camera presence.

Amazing footage from KABC (1974) of the SLA raid/shoot out involving Patty Hearst. Much of this footage wouldn't be aired raw on tv today.

NYC News compilation of the 1989 Staten Island tornado! Good to see WNYW in there, I often overlook them when seeking classic footage.
