WWUpdate 1290 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Any one have the clean version of the seven national news theme The one used by Brisbane's BTQ in the clip above? Sorry, no, but you can hear the original version of the theme in this 1983 BTQ open, right after the "Love You Brisbane" promo: ATN in Sydney (and possibly other Seven Network stations) also used this version, but not as long as BTQ. (Don't let the word "National" mislead you, by the way; these were all locally produced newscasts, but with national and international stories in addition to the local news.)

WWUpdate 1290 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 And, as we've seen here before, yet another version of the theme was used by BTV in Ballarat and GMV in Shapparton: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casey Buck 35 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 KPDX's 10 PM edition of KOIN's "NewsRoom 6" from December 30, 1992: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKFrFiYxRe0 Is this one of the first examples of one station producing a newscast for another station?

Samantha 2878 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 The answer is no. The first news shares in the country started in 1991, when WNEP began producing WOLF's 10pm newscast; WJKS created "First Coast News at 10" on WAWS in Jacksonville; and it wasn't uncommon even on the West Coast either (KAYU got a 10pm news in Spokane, produced by KREM). But it is an early example of what would soon become common. Also...KATU 11pm, 1996. This is the highest quality sample yet of their Spirit update. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-Q9KiatcdA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samantha 2878 Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 KTNV, 1990 5:30 open. The music is still Palmer, but the TVbD package has been ditched for the syndicated graphics also used by WTMJ and quite a few others: From 1993, a KLAS promo and open. While the promo features the 1992 theme's jingle, the station has by now changed its news music to Real News. The graphics are CBS affiliate graphics. Though this is the second sample of Real News we have from KLAS, it's still missing from the NMSA. In addition, the NMSA has another order error (NS2001->PYCCO8*->RealNews is the order, not NS2001->RealNews->PYCCO8) *"People You Can Count On 8" — "People You Can Count On" otherwise specifies the WBRZ/KTNV/WCHS package.

compubit 670 Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 Though this is the second sample of Real News we have from KLAS, it's still missing from the NMSA. In addition, the NMSA has another order error (NS2001->PYCCO8*->RealNews is the order, not NS2001->RealNews->PYCCO8) I made my first visit to Las Vegas in 1994 (change from a NASA engineer to an IT engineer) and attended NetWorld+InterOp in May 1994. KLAS was using PYCCO8 at that point for Eyewitness News and still had Real News on their "local update" on CNN Headline News. I enjoyed the closes - most were a full minute or longer with nice clean cuts of the music (I have them on 8mm tape, somewhere...) J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
