International News Presentation: Past and Present

There's also Bruzz, a Dutch-language news-and-information channel for Brussels:

Most (if not all) helped by having a wider variety of languages in these countries.

There's also TV2/Fyn Nyhedskanalen, an all-news channel serving the island of Funen in Denmark. It's operated by TV2/Fyn:

Though I'm pretty sure TV2 Fyn's news channel is far from 24/7. Lots of looped repeats and breakfiller slides, with "new"/live content coming in the afternoon and evening.

Live Rolling coverage from MOSCOW 24 of a courtroom shooting.

Eco, Mexico (the world's first Spanish-language news channel, now defunct)...

First top-of-the-hour, 1988:

Aussie news is in a good place right now imho. Quite a few revamps recently that look smart.

Thanks for posting these Noticiero Eco clips. Kudos to you. I'm sure these haven't been on this forum before. So am I.

Clearly the first clip was taken from a tribute program of a long-running Televisa anchor, minus the lower third graphics or watermarks.

Anyway the earliest clips of Eco that we found are from the 1990s on TV Ark (under the Other Channels section; back in the late 2000s) and some are on Youtube. TV Ark was one of the earliest TV presentation sites that I visited, long before I found TV Forum in late 2012.

The reason Eco was on the Other Channels section on TV Ark is Eco was aired across Europe via satellite. I think ironically it carried the Galavision watermark (from what I saw on Astra TV channel surfing videos from the 1990s), although I presume Eco in Europe carried no other Televisa programming other than Eco. Never think of Eco being carried outside America and Europe.

When I watch the clips, I found the headline part and the opener part very tedious. Because they're very long in duration, unlike other news channels. What I think in hindsight right now is Mexicans are used to have a laidback presentation. Yet when I watch the first clip that you share, I was surprised that they continue to use the same theme music later in the 1990s.

Back then I had minor interest in Spanish-language television. But I know some of the news openers and idents from the various Spanish-speaking countries like Chile, Colombia, Venezuela and Argentina. Now I've been progressively interested in Spanish and Portuguese again since last year.

Anyway the Mexican 24 Horas and Eco has been long defunct. But you would like to know that there are some Spanish news channels that exist today like CNN en Espanol, CNN Chile, Todo Noticias and Canal 24 horas (the other one from Chile). I think you know the former two.

BTW honestly I've never seen any Televisa news openers other than the idents of Televisa stations. Maybe because back then I was too lazy and had lack of interest to learn Spanish.

PS: It's odd to see how Spanish-speakers to use various variations of the word "noticias" such as noticiero, noti, and noticiario (the latter might be formal).

The recent new look of Jornal da Cultura that I found:


You'll find it odd to see that Bradesco is treated as a supporter ("apoio", similar to underwriting credit on American public TV).

Jornal da Cultura opener compilation as of March 2017:


I was surprised that the first theme was a movie soundtrack! Not surprisingly, their early 2000s theme sounds orchestrated much like TV Brasil's. But the rest are synthesized, the typical essence of Brazilian TV. I find odd to see Jornal da Cultura changing their look very often especially their design and theme music. They're constantly changing like other TV stations but not Globo which stays the same or make some variations. Excuse me for not seeing such compilations from Brazilian public TV before.

The 1991 opener was based on the TV Cultura's ident music. The globe logo was reused again a few years ago. Somebody on this thread said that the early 2010s opener looks like ABC News Australia. Also Carlos Nascimento used to work at TV Cultura before going to Globo and Band.

And an almost full clip of the weekend edition of Jornal da Cultura from 1994 (recently uploaded):

Indeed; that's the Back to the Future theme by Alan Silvestri. It was also used by Macedonia's public broadcaster in the early 1990s, as you can see (or should I say hear) at the start of this 2012 anniversary newscast:

Since we saw Jacobo Zabludovsky in that Eco clip, here he is anchoring Televisa's 24 Horas in 1982:
