As for the RTL4 news intro, I am delighted to hear the famous "RTL tune" again (I think it's still in use in Luxembourg and Belgium, and on the French RTL radio).

France (Yes):

I can hear the first half of it, but it then just seems to drop off at the end.

For fans of the RTL tune, here's an article on it: http://www.nieuwstunes.nl/articles/de-melodie-van-de-oude-rtl-nieuws-tune-is-al-decennia-oud/

It's in Dutch but there are some interesting versions of the famous melody that you can listen to.

Superb theme tune to RTL Nieuws there!


Its main musical signature was based on the old Radio Luxembourg news sounder:

Recently polish news channel Telewizja Republika's main evening newscast Dzisiaj (Today) received brand new look and studio. It is similar to that of Poland Daily, the station's english-language newscast.


It is the third time the channel updated graphics.

Here's a compilation of the network (ABC, CBS and NBC) primetime special reports of President Trump nominating Judge Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. Since the speeches are widely available I kept them in place but fast forwarded through them at 100x speed.
