Members Wales2004 Posted June 22, 2012 Members Share Posted June 22, 2012 I'll briefly interrupt to say that the best news intro I believe I have ever heard came from a local news anchor Jerry Dunphy who used to begin with "From the desert to the sea to all of Southern California..." And the best outro has to go to Walter Cronkite's "and that's the way it is." Pardon my interruption and carry on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MissLlanviewPA Posted June 23, 2012 Members Share Posted June 23, 2012 This has been WPVI Philadelphia's news theme since 1972. They tried to change it to an updated version in 1996, but after a week of viewer protest the original version was reinstated.

Members MissLlanviewPA Posted June 23, 2012 Members Share Posted June 23, 2012 This is the theme WPVI attempted for a week in 1996 before going back to the tried and true. Personally, I think it sounds fine, but the original is great, too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xvbj1webD1w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
