A good video on ethics in journalism...for 1984.

24994J 5276 Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 About 280 unique entries in my collection of WLS opens, and this is one I've never seen before. The station had used, to my knowledge, little more than a flash of the logo over a wide shot of the set as an open until their WPVI-style 1992 revamp. This clip shows us something rather different.

In 1997, KNXV used "Live, Local, Late-Breaking," as its slogan, while its competitor KPHO opted for a completely different approach -- "Local, Live, Late-Breaking." Who says that consultant-driven local news is beholden to formulas? Edited October 13, 2021 by WWUpdate 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Hill 37 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Denver Colorado's "Big Switch" of 1995! KCNC-TV 4, formerly affiliated with NBC, becomes owned and operated by CBS. KMGH-TV 7, formerly affiliated with CBS, becomes an ABC affiliate. KUSA 9, formerly affiliated with ABC, becomes an NBC affiliate. KCNC-TV 4 put out a special outlining the details of the affiliation switch (which station gets what network's programming and what programming stays at each station following the switch (mostly syndicated shows), plus some new TV shows these stations will get (syndication or network programming). Here's that video, divided into three parts: Here's KMGH-TV 7's report on the big switch on the following day: ...and KUSA, channel 9: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only portion of Live's 9/11 episode I've seen was in the 9/17/01 episode intro in which aired clips of this. It was up on You Tube years ago. I wondered why they went ahead with the show. Was it because the studio audience was there, for west coast stations, or they expected to air this the following day? According to an interview with Kelly Ripa they did so with the assumption that they wern't pre-empted in other markets and they continued until stations across the country took over coverage.
