The first 90-minute news block from WISH in Indianapolis (with a special introduction explaining the new format), 1989:

That was previously uploaded by Ken back in March of 2014, but without commercials.

 

A full 30 second version of WOI-TV's Keeping You in Touch jingle (sounds like it came from TM Productions). but with 5TV replaced by Channel 5:

Better yet, the whole newscast is available, in 60fps:

 

 

Worth noting — this is a generation of KCRA opens I had not seen. They'd change again in 1996, including an updated music package (the NMSA groups both).

 

Great find. I think that music package dates to around 1992 - the lower third graphics are also from around then (they borrowed from the early 90s NBC News lower thirds).

 

Liked how they'd sometimes key the feed from LiveCamera 3 behind the anchors for the two-shot. One thing a little off about that set - the 'CHANNEL 3 REPORTS' lettering above the anchors never matched lettering they used for the masthead on air.

That imaging song sounded so catchy that I uploaded it myself:

 

Also a WRC weekend open from 1984, featuring Mike Hambrick (who later returned to DC at WJLA) and Scott Clark before his big break finally establishing continuity to WABC’s sports department:

22 minutes of WSB news coverage, including of the fatal helicopter crash killing NASCAR racer Davey Allison in 1993. The station is already using Image VIII but not the Vance graphics:

 

 

And a KOVR 13 News brief from 1989... Kizzume's got the quality and the clips! :O
