International News Presentation: Past and Present

Think that's the first time I've seen a DOG in the centre of the (bottom of) screen, although in this contet it works.

MDR, east-central Germany; newsmagazine, 2015:

KIRO, Seattle, 1987 -- on the day of the crash of Northwest Airlines Flight 255:

Another interesting 1980s American newscast -- this time from WPXI in Pittsburgh:

Looks like a new set is coming to Denmark's TV2 News (channel) - as revealed on the Facebook page of TV2 presenter Lasse Sjørslev. You can see photos of the current set on the same page.

I suspect TV2 News will be adopting the same diagonal line motif that all other TV2 channels now use. The current - presumably outgoing - branding is described here.

NBC, U.S., Today, 1969; first hour:



Second hour: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndp15IxbwoE

SchoolTV, Netherlands; news for children, c. 2008-2012:

NHK, Japan; a compilation of News Center 9 (NC9) intros from the 1970s and '80s:



TV Asahi, Japan; News Station, 1989:

HSV7, Melbourne, Australia; news intros, 1988-2000:

RTL II News, Germany, 12/2015

Ah, that's a brand-new look, right? Thanks for posting it. Has RTL II News news always been broadcast from Berlin rather than Cologne (where most of RTL's operations and RTL Aktuell are based)?

BTW, what an interesting way of displaying the anchor's name!

It's 1999 and a Tornado hits downtown Salt Lake City. Here's KSL's 10 p.m. news from that day:

The presenter definitely welcomes viewers to RTL's "new news studio here in Berlin".
