DNA of the Chicago School of Television for business news

The Chicago School of Television is a creative television philosophy being rooted in its namesake; its purpose is to counter New York's theatrical/radio grandeur and Hollywood's cinematic glamour.

Such noted techniques involving television's Chicago School include walking personalities, addresses directly to viewers, fluid/moving camerawork and studio sets as three-dimensional/3D canvases.




When regular commercial television operations began in New York, many programs have incorporated theatrical proscenium or radio layouts, separating the stage from the audience area.

In other words, the early studio set designs used by many programs coming from the New York-centric television scene were like a cardboard box, but also two-dimensional/2D canvases.

Besides, New York-centric television also used fixed/static shots, together with loud talkers.



However, the Chicago School circumvented the traditions of the New York-centric television scene.



During the early years of the era after the Second World War, some television programs emanated from Chicago, where Dave Garroway was a radio disc jockey on WMAQ-AM.

Using a microphone to convey his laid-back delivery, radio was Dave Garroway's early passion.




Snapping fingers circumvents applause for Dave Garroway's early radio programs on WMAQ-AM.




Television came calling for the radio-friendly Dave Garroway in 1949; his eponymous program called Garroway at Large was a key component of the Chicago School.

April 1949 is when Dave Garroway's Garroway at Large program started its run as a local program on WNBQ, before airing on a national basis on NBC, starting in June 1949.




For his eponymous Garroway at Large program, Dave Garroway broke television's old traditions for a more casual approach, in which the reality of the studio was acknowledged.

Using one camera, Dave Garroway walked around large studios and simple abstract sets as he directly talked to guests and television viewers for his eponymous Garroway at Large program.





Just over 2 years after NBC started Dave Garroway's eponymous Garroway at Large program, its rival CBS responded by launching See It Now with Edward R. Murrow in November.

Hear It Now, which served as a former weekly radio adaptation of the I Can Hear It Now spoken-word album series, is, in turn, the basis for Edward R. Murrow's See It Now (CBS).

The CBS Television control room at Studio 41 in Grand Central Terminal houses Edward R. Murrow's innovative and groundbreaking See It Now television program.




Dave Garroway's Garroway at Large (NBC) used moving cameras and unpainted studio walls, whereas Edward R. Murrow's See It Now (CBS) featured a control room with monitors.

Plus, whereas programs from New York-centric TV were like a cardboard box, the See It Now program being helmed by Edward R. Murrow had a control room.



Both Dave Garroway's Garroway at Large (NBC) and Edward R. Murrow's See It Now (CBS) rejected cardboard box-like sets and exposed real technical television production.




NBC also pioneered a new formula of television: early-morning television, which is being offered via Today (NBC), initially coming from the RCA Exhibition Hall.




Situated in the Rockefeller Centre complex, the RCA Exhibition Hall is based directly across from the iconic and famous headquarters of the Associated Press at 50 Rockefeller Plaza.

Contrasting to the iconic headquarters of the Associated Press, which represented print journalism, the RCA Exhibition Hall represented electronic media's fluid and transparent future.




Inside the RCA Exhibition Hall, parts of which were converted into the first Today (NBC) studio, was a newsroom/bullpen being adapted from the Associated Press at 50 Rockefeller Plaza.

Juxtaposing print journalism's industrial past, via the AP at 50 Rock, with electronic media's transparent future, via the RCA Exhibition Hall, the Today (NBC) bullpen was a television innovation.



Next to the Today (NBC) bullpen at the RCA Exhibition Hall was a desk, based behind a backdrop with clocks and television monitors.

Besides, Today (NBC) featured pedestrians on the street looking through the glass windows of the RCA Exhibition Hall to watch this program.



Plus, teletypes that came from the Associated Press (AP), United Press (UP) and the International News Service (INS) were used inside the Today (NBC) newsroom/bullpen at the RCA Exhibition Hall.

The on-screen ticker being adapted from the wire services in the Today (NBC) newsroom/bullpen at the RCA Exhibition Hall, featuring a clock display being adapted from clocks, was used.

Due to technical difficulties and having lacked viewer traction, this on-screen ticker being adapted from wire feeds for Today (NBC) was dropped after just a few months.



Undoing the past, Today (NBC) under Dave Garroway births modern broadcast design elements.

Some of the innovations surrounding the RCA Exhibition Hall for Today (NBC) under Dave Garroway include a newsroom/bullpen, a street-side studio, a news ticker and a clock display.



This borderless room, located at the RCA Exhibition Hall for Today (NBC) under Dave Garroway, was made in-house by NBC's engineering units and RCA's corporate exhibition teams.



With the RCA Exhibition Hall as its first base, Today (NBC) doubled down on the Chicago Style being honed at Dave Garroway's eponymous Garroway at Large program.

Likewise, with Dave Garroway at the helm for Today (NBC), the RCA Exhibition Hall bridged the gap between the Chicago Style, the AP newsroom/bullpen and the See It Now control room.




For Today (NBC), under Dave Garroway, the RCA Exhibition Hall mixed Chicago's creativity with the industrial newsroom/bullpen (AP) and the technical network news nerve centre (CBS).





The early-1950's US presidential election, the second one being held during the Cold War period, was likewise the first to offer television coverage on a massive and multi-faceted level.

For the early-1950's US presidential election, the newly-completed microwave/coaxial system via the American Telephone & Telegraph Company solved the issues of the past televised ones.




Chicago, in which Dave Garroway pioneered a casual television style being brought to New York, also hosted the political conventions in the early-1950's at the International Amphitheatre.

For the Republican National Convention in this early-1950's era, it was the first to be presented live on television on a national level.



Whereas past conventions, including the 1948 gatherings, were simply being televised all over the East Coast, Chicago's political conventions in the early-1950's were televised nationwide.




Using the air conditioning process being installed at the International Amphitheatre, Chicago's political conventions, held in the early-1950's, were the first to do so.



Just before Chicago's major political conventions in the early-1950's era, summer political conventions notoriously suffered heat in venues without A/C, making citizens sweaty.

However, the addition of the A/C process and the American Telephone & Telegraph Company's coaxial television uplink for Chicago's early-1950's political conventions helped modernize these rituals.



For these early-1950's political rituals, held at the International Amphitheatre in Chicago, the major US television networks erected makeshift broadcast booths inside the convention halls.

The television service with the most notice to cover Chicago's political conventions in this early-1950's period was CBS, which brought Walter Cronkite to national prominence.




Echoing Dave Garroway taking Chicago's techniques with him to New York for Today (NBC) upon its launch in the early-1950's, the Chicago political conventions led to the New York election nights.

Similar to the newsroom/bullpen being adapted from the print field by Today (NBC) for television, the major US television networks used this print-style trend for their early-1950's elections.




Due to Walter Cronkite at the desk, CBS' nationally-televised coverage of these early-1950's American political events had a print-style newsroom/bullpen, which he adapted from the UP wire service.

For Walter Cronkite, he worked with producer Don Hewitt to put the newsroom/bullpen on television's political map, but also on the traditional windowless television studio map, via CBS.



Plus, this nationally-televised coverage of the early-1950's US presidential election was the first to be driven by computers.

One of the computers being utilized for this nationally-televised early-1950's US presidential election coverage was the UNIVAC I.



Standing for the Universal Automatic Computer I, the UNIVAC I was innovative in that it was the first American-made general-purpose commercial electronic digital computer.

Magnetic tape was for mass storage and mercury delay lines for memory, both for the UNIVAC I.




The Eckert-Mauchly Computer Corporation (EMCC), founded by its namesakes J. Presper Eckert and John Mauchly and based in Philadelphia, built the UNIVAC I.

Remington Rand purchased EMCC in 1950, under which the UNIVAC I was completed.




Having used the UNIVAC I for its televised early-1950's US presidential election coverage was CBS.



With the real UNIVAC 1 iteration being deemed too heavy to carry from Philadelphia to New York, its mock-up prop was installed at CBS' unified Studios 41/42 in New York's Grand Central Terminal.

For this mock-up UNIVAC I prop, it featured blinking Christmas tree lights to create a futuristic visual effect for CBS' nationally-televised early-1950's US presidential election coverage.


At half past 8 p.m., this UNIVAC I computer from the Remington Rand hub in Philadelphia accurately predicted that Dwight D. Eisenhower could win the US presidency; this was via CBS Television.




NBC adapted the newsroom/bullpen from the print scene for television under Dave Garroway.

CBS adapted this newsroom/bullpen element from NBC as a studio set feature being placed in a usual windowless room for television journalism under Walter Cronkite and Don Hewitt.

In the early-1950's, CBS Television innovated the newsroom/bullpen trend for televised election night coverage, in the mid-1960's with an evening news twist, and in March 1973 with a local twist.





The 1977 Trinity and the 1981 IBM Personal Computer are the blueprints for personal computers being included in the newsroom/bullpen for television in the modern era.

Using both the 1977 Trinity and the 1981 IBM PC, they shifted this newsroom/bullpen production from manual and paper-based workflows into fully automated digital hubs.



Search (1972-1973) is a sci-fi television series produced by Warner Bros. Television for NBC, with its basis being a 2-hour television film Probe (1972).




For Search/Probe (1972-1973), the Probe Control Centre is a fictional room based on NASA's Mission Control Centre.

What describes the Probe Control Centre for Search/Probe (1972-1973) is the fact that it uses a similar monitor matrix to the real-life NASA Mission Control Centre.




Designing the Probe Control Centre for Search/Probe (1972-1973) is Fred Harpman.

Besides, the Probe Control Centre, which Fred Harpman made for Search/Probe (1972-1973), directly inspires his television studio design called the NewsCentre.




Using architectural geometry, angled desks and glass partitions, Fred Harpman's NewsCentre set design contrasts with traditional ones whose framing was flat, shallow and two-dimensional.

Besides, the NewsCentre design by Fred Harpman features NASA-like banks of active video feeds/data monitors.

In addition, mezzanine/stairs also add to Fred Harpman's NewsCentre design.



Rooted in Hollywood's science fiction genre, Fred Harpman's high-tech and cinematic NewsCentre set design was made to have a working newsroom feel.

Plus, Fred Harpman's high-tech and cinematic NewsCentre studio design mirrored the boundless room inside the RCA Exhibition Hall for Today (NBC) under Dave Garroway.

Fred Harpman's NewsCentre is also based on Edward R. Murrow's See It Now (CBS) control room.



Chicago, in which Dave Garroway pioneered a casual television style being brought to New York, also housed WCIU-TV, which pioneered financial news on television.

In the West Coast, KWHY-TV pioneered financial news on television like WCIU-TV.



Both KWHY-TV and WCIU-TV are pioneers in offering financial and business news to television.

November 14, 1966 is when KWHY-TV was the first television station in both the US and the world to deliver financial and business news, with WCIU-TV following suit later.



Quotron, a financial device being made in 1960 by John Scantlin and his eponymous company Scantlin Electronics, is the first to directly stream real-time stock market data to an electronic screen.

Scantlin's Quotron system replaced traditional, slow and mechanical ticker tape machines.



NASDAQ is the world's first fully electronic stock market, which evolved from Quotron.




For the Financial News Network (FNN), some of its original personnel were from KWHY-TV, such as Rodney Buscher and Eugene Inger.

Both the Financial News Network (FNN) and KWHY-TV originated in Los Angeles.



Upon its 1981 launch, the Financial News Network (FNN) pioneered the scrolling digital stock market ticker being based across the lower third of the television screen on a national level.

In general, the FNN ticker had the top white band for stocks and the bottom blue band for index.




Mirroring the short-lived ticker being adapted from teletypes in the Today (NBC) bullpen under Dave Garroway, FNN's ticker is television's first continuous on-screen ticker on a national level.

Locally, this on-screen stock market ticker being created for both KWHY-TV and WCIU-TV featured scrolling text from bottom to top (vertical).

FNN's ticker featured scrolling text moving from right to left (horizontal).





Conversely, upon its mid-April 1989 launch, CNBC used a different ticker from FNN.

With the young and upstart CNBC merging with the iconic and famous, yet scandal-ridden FNN in the early-1990's, CNBC adopted/modernized FNN's scrolling 2-band digital stock market ticker.



Just prior to the Financial News Network (FNN), continuous financial and business tickers were being restricted to local TV stations for several hours.

However, FNN's true breakthrough was to make the stock market ticker a 24-hour standard






Expanded formats beyond the quarter-hour serve as modern blueprints for global television news.

For the nationally-televised early-1950's US presidential election, it serves as the modern blueprint for nationally-televised election broadcasts from democracies around the world.

Mirroring the host city of the early-1950's political conventions (coupled with its innovative television philosophy), the box-like election studio sets were torn down for the newsroom/bullpen trend.




21st-century television news studio set designs endure a pivot away from the newsroom/bullpen trend being driven by computers (inspired by print and the UNIVAC I), but others bring it back.





Juxtaposed with the newsroom/bullpen being adapted from print for television by Today (NBC) under Dave Garroway, the UNIVAC I also changed election nights on television.

Whereas 21st-century television election studio designs pivot away from this newsroom/bullpen trend being driven by computers (inspired by print and the UNIVAC I), others bring it back.







Modern 21st-century news studio designs cannot leave behind Dave Garroway's television traits; they instead use digital technology to merge and evolve them into flexible ecosystems.

Some of the innovative Dave Garroway traits that modern 21st-century news studio designs can never leave behind include a newsroom/bullpen, a street-side studio and a news ticker/clock display.





In addition, modern 21st-century televised election studio set designs could not also leave behind these similar Dave Garroway traits to those being used in the television news business.

Likewise, modern 21st-century business/financial news studio set designs cannot also leave the similar Dave Garroway traits behind to those being used in television news.







Just before both Dave Garroway and Edward R. Murrow, television news studio sets were divided into three separate formulas:


  • News anchors sitting at one desk in a studio with a cardboard box feel behind blank walls

  • Journalists working in a newsroom/bullpen being filled with teletype machines and noises

  • Technical staff operating in a dark and windowless control room, featuring monitor banks



However, both Dave Garroway and Edward R. Murrow broke down the cardboard box-like television studio set walls, turning television news studio sets into three-dimensional/3D canvases.



By the mid-1950's period, the Chicago School of Television had started to fade, as television network production had become a centralized duopoly between New York and Los Angeles.





The East Coast (New York) houses American television's corporate/news operations.

Due to its proximity to Wall Street, plus its political corridors, the East Coast (New York) houses live broadcast journalism, morning news and late-night satire involving current events.

Incidentally, New York is American broadcasting's main financial and executive command centre.




As for the West Coast (Los Angeles), it uses the television industry's entertainment, variety and filmed sectors, capitalizing on.Hollywood's infrastructure and cinematic pool.




Still, the DNA of the Chicago School has had an impact on television.

The casual delivery and open-plan studio sets being rooted in television's Chicago School lead to those being used by national newscasts, nationally-televised elections and 24-hour cable news channels.

Plus, the Chicago School DNA is in sports, and most notably, social media, like YouTube and TikTok.

Worldvision Enterprises was not affiliated with World Vision International.





HBO started operations on November 8, 1972 as a regional microwave-fed premium television service under Cleveland-born Charles Dolan.

Sterling Communications, backed by Time Inc., was Charles Dolan's company, sold to Time in 1973.



Warner Communications began purchasing Time's stake in Sterling Communications in May 1973, but backed out in June 1973.

A few years later, on September 30, 1975, HBO uplinked its signal via satellite across the nation.





For HBO's September 30, 1975 national uplink, Westar 1 was the satellite.

Satcom 1 replaced Westar 1 as HBO's preferred satellite, nearly 5 months after its September 30, 1975 national uplink.

The Thrilla in Manila is HBO's first broadcast on a national basis, doubling as the first telecast to air a continuous live signal to cable systems on a national level via satellite.


Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier were in the Thrilla in Manila, the earlier boxer of which won.

Some behind-the-scenes individuals being involved in HBO's historic Thrilla in Manila telecast include Bob Rosencrans, Kay Koplovitz, Gerald Levin and Monte Rifkin.



Unconfined to boxing, HBO aired major league sports from Madison Square Garden from its debut on November 8, 1972 to mid-1977.


Joining Cleveland in Ohio cities starting with the letter C are Cincinnati and Columbus, plus Dayton.




For Cleveland, it births Superman and Charles Dolan (HBO).

Likewise, Cincinnati roots Taft Broadcasting and Ted Turner.



During its peak, Taft Broadcasting had endured close relations with ABC, due to Leonard Goldenson's friendship with Hulbert Taft Jr.

Indeed, Taft's close relationship with ABC boosted the network's national coverage.



For Taft, its Cincinnati roots are in the Cincinnati Times-Star, plus WKRC Radio and Television.

The E.W. Scripps Company, a locally-based rival of this iconic and famous Taft media empire, took the Cincinnati Times-Star in the late-1950's.


Just like the Taft media empire, the E.W. Scripps Company's Cincinnati roots come from the Cincinnati Post and WCPO Radio and Television.



Moving on from print after its late-1950's sale of the Cincinnati Times-Star to the E.W. Scripps media empire, Taft Broadcasting entered the entertainment industry.


December 1966 is when Taft, which had close relations with ABC, acquired the iconic Hanna-Barbera studio, with William Hanna and Joseph Barbera remaining as its figureheads.




Kings Island is Taft's first theme park, which opened its doors in April 1972.

For Kings Island, it led to Kings Entertainment Company (KECO), spun-off in April 1984 from Taft.




Canada's Wonderland, which Taft opened in late-May 1981 with Canada Life, serves as Canada's first major theme park.




Worldvision Enterprises, spun-off in 1973 from ABC Films, was sold to Taft 6 years later.

Quinn Martin Productions was also sold to Taft around Worldvision's purchase.



Atlanta, Georgia is Ted Turner's main base.

For Ted Turner, his true link to Cincinnati is that, as a child, he sold copies of the Cincinnati Enquirer newspaper at a streetcar stop near the Cincinnati Zoo, starting his media career.



The first television assets for Ted Turner are WJRJ-TV and WCTU-TV, both of which were struggling stations on the UHF band before he acquired them and both of which began in the late-1960's.

Under Ted Turner, both WJRJ-TV and WCTU-TV changed their call letters to WTCG and WRET.



In July 1969, Rice Broadcasting, which founded/ran WJRJ-TV, announced its merger with the Turner Communications Corporation, approved by the FCC in December 1969.

September 1969 is when WCTU-TV fell into insolvency, resulting in its sale to Turner not long after.





Responding to HBO's September 30, 1975 national satellite-fed uplink, both WTCG and WRET were contenders for the first superstation, the earlier local station of which won.



For WTCG's national satelite-fed uplink, held under a month before 1977 began, it used Satcom 1.

Incidentally, Satcom 1, already used by HBO as its frequent satellite after replacing Westar 1, was also being used by WTCG to carry its signal to cable systems.




Likewise, Ted Turner attended the McCallie School, from which he graduated in the mid-1950's.

Pat Robertson, who held the Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN), also had his graduation from the McCallie School a decade before Ted Turner.





The CBN Satellite Service was the first television network to be delivered nationwide via satellite on a basic cable status from its technical outset.

Upon its April 29, 1977 debut, the CBN Satellite Service had no commercials until September 1, 1981.



September 22, 1977 is when the individuals being involved in HBO's historic Thrilla in Manila telecast formed a joint venture with the local MSG Network to launch its national version.

For the national iteration of the local MSG Network, its launch on September 22, 1977 made it the first national satellite-fed basic cable television network with commercials from its outset.



Tennessee likewise roots Malcolm Wheeler-Nicholson, who co-founded DC Comics, which has been a Warner Bros. property since 1969.


Meanwhile, Columbus roots QUBE from the cable division of the Warner Bros. media empire.

In an era when most homes have a few over-the-air stations, QUBE had a mutli-channel box.




Although not commercially profitable (and having suffered high costs), QUBE is still the incubator for modern cable television.

December 1, 1977 was when QUBE began operations.



Warner Communications joined American Express to form Warner-Amex, nearly 2 years after QUBE's December 1, 1977 launch.



Pinwheel, which started as a local program on QUBE, became national sixteen months later on a new channel called Nickelodeon.

Sight on Sound, also a local program on QUBE, became national on August 1, 1981 as MTV.



Unconfined to Sight on Sound, Warner-Amex developed PopClips, created by Michael Nesmith.




Rio is a 1977 tune by Michael Nesmith that has a promotional clip.

Michael Nesmith's Rio promo clip is created, not in the usual low-budget form of an artist playing an instrument on a plain stage, but in the form of a comedic and surreal short film.

Directing Michael Nesmith's Rio promo clip is William Dear.



So successful was Michael Nesmith's Rio promotional clip, which William Dear had directed, that this former member of The Monkees pitched a platform for playing music videos.

By joining TV producer Norman Lear, both Michael Nesmith and William Dear created PopClips.




PopClips featured back-to-back music videos, hosted by comedic on-screen individuals named Video Jockeys (VJs), an innovation for the television business.


When the major television networks pitched Michael Nesmith's PopClips, they refused, as they did not think that audiences would sit down to watch non-live music content.

However, John Lack, who was Warner-Amex's executive Vice-President, saw the potential for Michael Nesmith's PopClips.



This PopClips format, which Michael Nesmith pitched, was sold to Warner-Amex, which used it on its youth-oriented network called Nickelodeon in late-1980.


With the success being made by Michael Nesmith's PopClips, Warner-Amex realized that its half-hour length was not enough, and decided to upscale this one into a 24-hour service.

Robert Pittman had fast-paced radio strategies; he joined John Lack to begin MTV on August 1, 1981.



Michael Nesmith was not known as MTV's inventor, but his PopClips concept was known by industry insiders and television network architects as the catalyst for MTV's.



Going back to Atlanta, WATL originated The Now Explosion, another MTV precursor, which WTCG likewise aired.




Video Concert Hall (VCH) was a similar Atlanta-rooted MTV precursor to The Now Explosion.

Lloyd G. Crowe and Charles W. Henderson co-created Video Concert Hall (VCH).


The Now Explosion, Video Concert Hall (VCH),  Sight on Sound and PopClips, the earlier two being rooted in Atlanta, were MTV precursors.

For WHIO-TV, it serves as Dayton's first and oldest-operating television station, with WLWD/WDTN being its first licensed one and its second in operation.


Johnny Gilbert and Phil Donahue are Dayton television icons who earn national recognition.



TeleRep, which Al Masini founded in the late-1960's, had been Cox's subsidiary since 1972.

Operation Prime Time (OPT) is a former consortium of America's indie television stations.


Likewise, both TeleRep (Cox) and OPT owned their own programming, production and syndication division called Television Program Enterprises (TPE).




Entertainment Tonight, Solid Gold and Star Search are noted programs from OPT/TPE.



September 14, 1981 is when Entertainment Tonight made its debut.

During its original tenure, Star Search proved that television served as a launching pad for iconic and world-famous celebrities.





On March 4, 1989, Time and Warner Communications announced their merger into TimeWarner.

Some years after this January 1990 merger, in the early-1990's era, TimeWarner transferred most of its television, film production, music and cable assets to TimeWarner Entertainment Company.





Echoing Warner's 1973 transaction in acquiring Time's stake in Sterling Communications, this January 1990 merger between Time and Warner united WB, DC and HBO under one umbrella.

TimeWarner, which held WB, DC and HBO, merged with Turner Broadcasting System in 1996.




With the 1996 Turner-TimeWarner merger, some of the animated characters being rooted in pioneering studios via Margaret J. Winkler and Charles Mintz came full circle.




London, which is an iconic and world-famous global city being located in the UK, houses the London Symphony Orchestra (LSO) and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra (RPO).

The LSO performs John Williams' film scores, like Star Wars and Superman.







Besides, London births stock music with De Wolfe Music, in addition to its modern and contemporary sound with KPM/EMI under Robin Phillips and Adrian Kerridge.

Having been educated at the Juilliard School, Robert A. Israel entered television music through David Susskind and Daniel Melnick.


Cues from film scoring Juilliard alumni, incidentally, inspire stock music cues.




Ontario likewise houses both Sound Ideas/Westar and Canadian Music Sales Corporation (CMS), both entities having ties with Warner Bros., but also distributing De Wolfe Music in Canada.

Sound Ideas, which is Westar's sister label, distributes the Turner Broadcast Music Library, which also involves both Edd Kalehoff and Gary Anderson.



For Sound Ideas/Westar, it uses sound effects from WB and Hanna-Barbera.





Jack Waldenmaier, whose secondary base Cincinnati births both the Tafts and Ted Turner, has his label called The Music Bakery, based in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.

In the corporate/industrial genre, The Music Bakery makes cues similar to Score Productions' work for ABC News and CNN.





Steven Wenger is also a musician in the Southern US region.

RAI - Radiotelevisione Italiana is Italy's national public broadcaster. It is also one of the best and most trusted broadcasters in the world.




For years, RAI Uno has been known as the television voice of the Christian Democrats, with RAI Due being allied with the Socialists and RAI Tre with the Communists.



In the mid-1980's, Studio ARA created 3 symbols for RAI's main television channels: a blue sphere for RAI Uno, a red cube for RAI Due and a green pyramid for RAI Tre.

A Handel Gothic typeface was used for RAI's mid-1980's rebrand.



TG1, TG2 and TG3 are RAI's 3 main television news programs, each having a distinct approach.





For TG1 (RAI), it is the oldest and most-watched television news program in Italy; it has often used a conservative, institutional and formal approach since its official 1954 inception.

By countering TG1 (RAI), TG2 (RAI) has a more innovative, dynamic and fast-paced approach.

Meanwhile, TG3 (RAI) has often heavily focused on regional news and social issues.




One of the noted TG1 (RAI) hallmarks is the theme tune being done by an orchestra.

Egidio Storaci composed the iconic and famous TG1 (RAI) theme tune, in turn, inspired by a romantic Latin ballad called Cuando Vuelva a Tu Lado by Mexican singer Maria Grever.



Carlo Pes edited and shortened Egidio Storaci's TG1 (RAI) theme tune into the definitive signature still being used.

Egidio Storaci's TG1 (RAI) theme tune arrangement by Carlos Pes was used until the early-1990's.





As for TG2 (RAI), its first visual identity, which was being masterminded by Piero Gratton and Sandro Lodolo, stood out from the rigid TG1 (RAI) look.

Sandro Brugnolini composed the first theme tune for TG2 (RAI), which had a synth-heavy sound.




With colour television making its arrival in Italy in 1977, TG1 (RAI) had a grid-like logo, which was refined by Massimo Vignelli, with Sandro Lodolo doing the animation.

Brian Eno composed the haunting, yet iconic TG3 (RAI) theme tune, which has a teletype melody.





Under Bruno Vespa, and facing competition from Mediaset's news operations, TG1 (RAI) underwent a rebrand in the early-1990's.
