This is a sequence of five station promos from WBZ-TV/Boston's "Today's 4" campaign. These originally aired in 1981. The music is by Edd Kalehoff. All rights are acknowledged.
I keep watching this impressive set of promos. Edd Kalehoff really captured the feeling and spirit. The "Today's 4" theme is addictive for TV promo collectors and fans. JimMastersTV
Exciting, authoritative news promos, warm and energetic and catchy station image promos. "Today's 4". One of the great TV station image campaigns. You don't see stations creating such elaborate promos anymore and as a big fan and collector of such promos and someone who is in the broadcasting business, it is sad to see. These promos gave you a sense that WBZ-4 was THE station to watch. Created by the same team that created the popular "We're 4 New York" for WNBC- TV 4 New York.
They did the same thing on the radio side, firing David Brudnoy and bringing in syndicated programming. They quickly reversed course after much public pressure.
