16:46 to 25:58 That’s how you do an opening for a newscast: no generic logos, just use people of the city
The 1992-1996 opens resemble WPVI Action News. If only WLS used "Move Closer To Your World."
7:37 Theme from KIRO-TV (Eyewitness News Afternoon)
WLS-TV, the hometown station for Pat Sajak.
WZVN-DT 7.1 likes the Eyewitness News brand.

I don’t know why they dropped Eyewitness news in the 90s they could’ve kept it.

As of this upload, this news opens video is the second-longest on your channel.
Love the video but The 2005-13 Opens are duplicated. Might wanna modify a bit....
After the United Mexican States.
