July 10, 1978 ABC News introduced World News Tonight -a totally new evening broadcast with a refreshing Onand informative format headed by some of the most experienced, respected news people in the business. In just two short years, World News Tonight's audience has grown tremendously, attracting more than 4 million additional viewers-people who were not regular network news viewers before. World News Tonight has been hailed as "exciting", "unpre- dictable", "intimate ", "... the news broadcast that gives you more investigative reporting and more extensive international coverage than othernews broadcasts". And World News Tonight is just one member of the ABC News family. With news reports in Good Morning America, Nightline, 20/20, Closeup, our ground -breaking late -night re- ports on the Iran crisis, and our coverage of the '80 Vote, ABC has become the network more people get their news and information from than any other network. For two years, our staff of professionals has worked hard to build ABC News into a respected leader in broadcast journal- ism. While that is a source of great satisfaction, it also heightens our sense of responsibility to the viewing public as we face the challenges of the new decade. You can't afford to miss our :news.

Broadcasting Jul 14 1 980 r TOP OF THE WEEK r I nett, for all its size and wealth, has com- bined its seven stations with three others -KGWTv Portland, KTVV(TV) Salt Lake City, and KING -TV Seattle -in sharing 43 hours purchased through Satellink of America, which provides the uplink to a Western Union satellite. The stations share time within 30- minute increments - not always comfortably. At times, two or more stations in a sharing arrangement want the same segment. Journalism is one motivation in sta- tions' decision to broadcast live from Joe Louis Arena and adjoining Cobo Hall. Another, some will admit, is self- promo- tion. And Dick Mallory of Cox Broadcast- ing Corp., whose wsB-TV Atlanta and wsoc -Tv Charlotte, N.C., are in a consor- tium with KPRC -TV Houston, offers a third reason: "We need experience with satellites ... Until you do this, you don't know the steps needed. So the next time we want to use the satellite, we won't be as hesitant." Broadcasting live from the con- vention, then, is for the stations involved a rite of passage to a new level of televi- sion news service. For all of the glamour and excitement of satellite technology, it is still only a means of transmitting a story. It is getting a story that last week was expected to attract about 2,500 personnel from some 450 radio and television stations, groups and the new, emerging networks. For the sta- tion personnel, at least, they do not have to hunt for the big story at a convention where everything is likely to be formatted. Their responsibility is easily defined: Cover the local angle. Jim Snyder, vice president of news for Post- Newsweek stations, said each of the four outlets in the group- WFSB -TV Hart- ford, Conn.; wJxT-TV Jacksonville and WPLG -TV Miami, both Florida, and WDIV- Tv Detroit -will cover the convention "in terms of the local angle." Indeed, in the view of PNS President Joel Chaseman, "the best stories at most political conven- tions are local stories, the way elected delegates vote and the positions they take on the important issues." Each station has sent two reporters, a producer and a camera crew, and they will dog their respective delegations and be on the lookout for news of interest to their home Mks

What you don't know about your film library may be killing you. Because there are so many films to choose from, keeping up is almost impossible. Without a little help, you may be losing money and viewers. That's where Kaman can turn things around. Our BCS "FILMS" management package helps you select the film that fits the bill. "FILMS" does this by letting you choose the appropriate selection variables: previous audience share, stars, contract expiration, length, number of plays, depreciation, target audience, and more. With all these criteria at your fingertips, you'll make better programming decisions -because you'll be making more effective use of your film library. It also provides amortization, payable and forecasting information. And you can use our "FILMS" management package independently or with our BCS 1100 traffic /accounting system. Other BCS management packages include "DEMOS ", which provides immediate access to all rating book data and prepares avail submissions; "KARTS" for inventory and access control of carts and cassettes; and "NEWS ", an inventory and retrieval system. Get the complete details on all BCS management packages by calling us at (303) 599 -1601, or write Kaman Sciences Corporation, P.O.
