Weekend Update was created by original anchor Chevy Chase, and appeared on the first SNL broadcast on October 11, 1975. Chase popularized several catch phrases during the segment, such as his "I'm Chevy Chase and you're not" greeting, and his repeated announcement that "Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead." In addition, the practice of a picture insert of a person simultaneously giving the news read in sign language for the hearing impaired was parodied by Garrett Morris.

From June 1980 until 1990, WPIX produced a national newscast, Independent Network News, for independent stations across the country. The program was anchored by the same air staff that produced Action News on WPIX—Pat Harper, Steve Bosh and Bill Jorgensen. The local newscast was the first by an independent station to win a New York Emmy Award for outstanding newscast. It was a remarkable turnaround for a news operation that during the 1970s had been accused of falsifying its news reports -- such as putting "via satelli ...

Channel One has become controversial largely due to the commercial content of the show. Critics claim that it is a problem in classrooms, because it consumes class time. Supporters argue that the ads are necessary to help keep the program running. Another controversial point is the content of the ads themselves. Many of the ads display images of a violent or sexual nature. While Channel One has said they have been working to tone down their advertising, which now consist mostly of public service announcements, in 2005 they ran an ad for Veri ...

As of late, there has been a growing population (albeit still a small minority) that feel that SportsCenter has strayed too far from its roots as a highlight show. They feel that it has become too "entertainish" and caters too much to the casual fan, citing such examples as Steve Phillips' "Simulated Press Conferences" and the aforementioned "50 in 50" segment. These types of segments have coincided with ESPN's Original Entertainment (EOE) movement, which has brought such shows as Playmakers and Tilt. They will also argue that the show has been dumbed down and games are ...
