ABC News Victoria - Opener (August 1998)

One from the archives... This is how ABC News looked back around 12 years ago - this being the previous opener/graphics before the current version.

Veteran newsreader Ian Henderson is the presenter, and the news of the day is missile strikes on Afghanistan by the USA - and this was ~3 years before September 11...

Recorded of ABV2 Melbourne, 1998.

@KataVideo 12 years, on and the stories sound the same. Only in widescreen and high definition.

@tranquilityMS I always loved the epic lead in to the theme and the Aunty logo descending from the dark abyss.

Lol President Clinton that was a while back .. And were those three murders underbelly material?

I love the Aunty. True Journalism without hype (nor ads). Ian is still doing great. There's an old saying, "if it's not broken, don't fix it!" So I guess Ian will be around for a long time to come.

the begining of the music sounds like the opening from some speghati western
