9/11/2002 coverage. looks like all big three networks ran an all day long retrospective on the attacks.

 

NBC Townhall style coverage

ABC

Barbara Walters takes over coverage from Peter Jennings (9/14/01) at 3:30:05. Cool to see Barabara at the anchor desk in the 2000s.

KCBS channel 2 Action News 1991

 

Here’s the link to the original KCBS full newscast- and the date is July 8, 1991, not April 4 (the Christopher Commission started in April 1991, and there’s no way they’d have everything wrapped up in a couple of days…)

Tons of new stuff to upload...been away from uploading for 2+ weeks because my life is so darn busy.

 

KVEW 12/30/99 sports segment and a bit of KNDU

KVEW 1/4/00 and 1/6/00, 'Hoop Train' segments

KNDU Live at 11, 1/4/00, with Scott Stovall, still at KEPR.

KIMA NewsBeat open, early 1993

KING 5 News following the Seoul Closing Ceremonies, 10/2/1988. A younger Joyce Taylor, David Kerley...and Rich Marriott with a beard?! (he's still there, the last KING meteorologist from my childhood)

 

KING 5 News at 11, 4/4/1988 (partial) - different opening montage on this one. Classic desk pairing - Don Porter, Jeff Renner, Tony Ventrella.

Found this recently, a YT that dates to 1980.  *Very rare* end-of-newscast compilation from KLTV.  Most of the content looks to be from different parts of the 1970s.  KLTV was saying goodbye to 3 of their employees: Bobby Perdue, their main news anchor; Steve Lee, sports director/anchor; and Robert Hilliard, photographer/cameraman.  All were departing to start their own local production company.  Many parts of the video are bloopers.  There isn't much online from the early days of KLTV (much less the other Tyler/Longview stations).  Hilliard's YT channel is the source.

(Keen eyes will notice the backdrop of the studio as a hand-me-down from a set previously used by KXAS.  KLTV was using "Move Closer to Your World" as a newscast theme at this time, also.)

Hurricane Ian's coverage reminds me of Hurricane Andrew's coverage from 30 years ago:

WSVN (8/17/92) 1 week before the storm. TS Andrew was a minor footnote in the weather portion:

8/24/92 The night before the storm:

Aftermath (date unclear, 1992)
