    KMOV 4 in St.Louis had this campaign. It was called “Watch 4 St Louis”. This campaign launched when KMOX-TV changed its call letter to KMOV, from the sale of CBS to Viacom in the the spring of 1986. The videos of the campaign are on UA-cam.

      I'm really surprised that a station used this jingle as late as 1994. I've never seen any video of this from later than 1987. Then again, I've seen WBZ's 1980 image campaign "The One 4 All" be adopted in another market as late as 1990. I thought the jingle was dated by '90, but that station probably had a much lower budget.

    ...Channel 3 News Turn to 3."
    Production staff at WKYC TV Cleveland created this.
    Doreen Gentsler, lead co-anchor of TV 3 News, is pictured with Cleve. on-air personaiities.
    The lovely Miss Gentsler went south, then, ended up as the long term co-anchor at WRC 4 Washington, D.C.
    I recall with pleasure lighting her cigarette at a lounge near the station.
    What was the name of that bar/restaurant on the southeast corner of Superior and E. 6th St.?

    WFLA then WXFL in Tampa used Turn To News as just an image campaign from 1985-1992. That promo at 30:07 is from 1986 and there is one floating around from 1991. Turn To replaced a great image campaign that was a victim of low ratings at the station “The Spirit of Tampa Bay” also by Frank Gari. WFLA used Turn To for promos and sign on/off music only but used 615’s Power News during that whole time for news programming.

    I kinda wish WUHF in Rochester had kept the same logo and jingle. Too bad Wilmorite had bought it and mucked everything up.
    Also, I'm kinda jealous of how much more creative the jingles were for other cities.

    my takes: KYW 3, I knew they had to include some sangin in there, cause philly is home to some soulful music up there. WCPX 6, they could’ve did the ending with a shot of walt disneyworld at night with the fireworks going off over the castle and fantasyland/fantasy in the sky if it was going on.

    KGBT lost the CBS affiliation to KVEO 23.2 (now branded CBS 4) as compensation for the blotched Sinclair-Tribune merger. KVEO moved into KGBT's former Harlingen studios, and Nexstar bought KGBT from Sinclair. The "Turn To" song was used by a Texas newspaper, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, with the slogan "Reach for a Star."
