24994J 5575 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 WLS from late August, 1990. Both videos are from the weekend that an armed criminal made his way into the station at 190 North State. The 10PM newscast was broadcast from the Sears Tower control room, seeing as the studio was on lockdown. Many well-known Chicago fixtures are featured...Sylvia Perez, Dick Johnson, Chuck Goudie, GM Joe Ahern, Paul Meincke, and a young Jim Rosenfield (prior to his move out East). Also featured is a short report from Roseanne Tellez and Robert Jordan on WGN.  Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXQc2DWeN9k  Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3RLQhYQfi4 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/66/#findComment-79139 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samantha 2895 Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 KTVL NewsCenter 10, 10/21/1980. The theme music is the NBC TV/Radio Newspulse package. Very odd long tease precedes the open: Â Â Tobacco Archive: 1993 news items on the EPA and the tobacco industry. The newscasts are national and local (Richmond market): Â http://archive.org/details/tobacco_rrp23e00 Â Notably, WWBT used the NBC Affiliate Package for its First at 5 newscast and 11pm open, and WRIC used Symphony at morning and noon and another theme at 6pm and 11pm upon switching to TV8 News. You can hear the Symphony samples at 15:00 and 19:08, and the unID theme is heard at 17:21 and 23:51. Â I believe WRIC used these themes from 1992-94 and Total News from 1994-96 or so.
