WSTR, with its unique heritage as a subscription station (much like HBO) deserves a historical page in its own right. So it goes -- few people know, and even fewer seem to care, about this kind of stuff!emery_rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07870661804526939428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3943321092483498805.post-81517522647065911682009-08-20T13:48:50.153-04:002009-08-20T13:48:50.153-04:00Early on when I did the blog, there was a great hi...Early on when I did the blog, there was a great history page on fox8cleveland.com..When they redid their site, that part disappeared. The original webmaster of the site was kind enough to offer me the history pages, which I incorporated into the blog..The original site is still up on archive.org..Today's Fox8.com has a very cursory history page..sad..Tim Loneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15208281099970788558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3943321092483498805.post-33480488131445851262009-08-20T12:48:30.408-04:002009-08-20T12:48:30.408-04:00Rich,

This...How about something similar from Cincinnati?<br /><br />This "60 Years of Cincinnati TV Memories" webpage comes directly from WKRC/12's website:<br /><br />http://www.local12.com/content/mediacenter/12vault/12_videovault.aspx<br /><br />There's quite a bit there -- most notable for non-Cincinnati folks might be clips with Dick Clark and the Beatles, but DO NOT miss the early drama from 1951 called "The Storm" -- it was written by Rod Serling! Look at the bottom right of the webpage for "The Storm"...<br /><br />And there's also some great stuff buried deep within the website of Cincinnati's first station, WLWT/5.<br /><br />http://www.wlwt.com/ruthlyonsbirthday/index.html<br /><br />This page has lots on talk show pioneer Ruth Lyons, as well as Paul Dixon (who's kind of acquired taste, for sure!).<br /><br />Next comes WCPO/9 -- a bit less here than with the first two, but it's still interesting:<br /><br />http://www.wcpo.com/content/aboutus/history/default.aspx<br /><br />Can't find anything similar on the websites of our two other major commercial stations (WXIX and WSTR).emery_rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07870661804526939428noreply@blogger.com
