Diana Pierce was a judge for a singing contest and i gotta pic wif her !

[newstarcadefan]

Wowsers, the music is definately familiar to me. WYTV used that up from like 1990-1994, the graphics however is pretty sweet for the 1980's.

Wrong. Gannett, KARE's owner since 1983 and WUSA's owner since 1985, was the one who did the switch.

Oh THANK YOU for posting this!!!

I've been waiting for someone to post this for YEARS. Wondering if someone might have the outro to the KMSP 9 10pm news which had a cool heli shot of downtown Mpls. This sure brings back memories!

I've always enjoyed this opening as a kid.

[rmg1204]

What an awesome open!

[catbeast2007]

Diana Pierce is still with KARE 11 News, but also Charles Van Dyke was the voice of

NEWS11 now KARE 11 News. So what year did NEWS 11 became KARE 11 News?

[Namzso1]

1990 or so

[videonut33]

1989. I've seen this sequence on another vid, gotten revised, sounded like the 6pm theme, cause it was reddish-orange on the background , different theme music.

[JimmySand9]

Not quite. They were WUSA, and they sent the calls to Washington.

And this may be the coolest open I've ever seen.
