newsteam13 375 Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 1 hour ago, 8Viewer said: i don't think this has been posted. It's WSB from 1974. The main anchor is David Sisson and the title of newscast is "Newsroom". Surprisingly, they are also using "MCTYW" here: Not too long, WSB's Newsroom became what is known as ACTION NEWS, which it still is today. As for the Newsroom branding, after a two-year hiatus, it moved to WXIA when it became 11ALIVE, which is also still is today. 1976 was the year WXIA resurrected the Newsroom branding to become 11 Alive Newsroom. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmasters1 382 Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Vintage WJZ EWN openings from 1980-83, both with the same music, and a different title formation: --First, the late edition from that time, with title music in a more stereo format, and shots of late-night activities (fireman sliding down the firepole, carhop moving among cars at a drive-in, toll booth worker enjoying her job, etc.); the different title formation has the two parts of the Eyewitness News title coming together from the left and the right against a black screen (the way we were used to seeing it, the last shot [don't know what of] slid up and revealed the studio with the title superimposed on that shot): --Then, same music, but with shots of evening activities for the evening edition (putting supper on the table, getting something out of the oven, someone lighting a menorah, ballet dancing, juggling, you name it); same title formation: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WAVY 10 Fan 233 Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Found this on the Election Video Headquarters channel (this apparently is one uploading a lot of the videos that had been on the Dannotch's News Videos channel before YouTube nuked it) and this is something I've never seen on YouTube until this morning. It's a compilation of CNN reports looking at the aftermath of the 1980 elections and a little bit of coverage regarding the transition period (and a close of WPIX's "Action News" broadcast at the end) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLq9VAqHpvI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sfomspphl 471 Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 WLS Eyewitness News Brief 1989 Rare cut of NS2000 here. It's somewhere between the sound of the original 1984 cuts and the early 90s synth update for WABC. Not clear if it's just a track mixdown of the original cuts, or a new arrangement altogether.

Looks like the new 4 as of this late edition was made to stand up straight, while the old 4 was more slanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MediaZone4K 1872 Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 (edited) WNBC Live at Five intro (1994). Great synergy with the main NBC as Matt was Today's newsreader and the 5:00 show was broadcast from Studio 1A. I wish WNBC stuck with the Live at 5 format. Despite great aesthetics and decent talent WNBC saw a decline in the late 2007 before picking back up around 2012. They didn't have a noon or 5pm newscast for a while. Still curious as to the factors behind the afternoon block switch ups. Edited February 24, 2023 by iron_lion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
