CLP87 News

CLP87 News is a news channel that currently operates as a news media owned by CLP Network, which itself is a subsidiary of ATBW Label Networks. It first began broadcasting in 1953 and still continues broadcasting to this day.

History
The station was founded in 1953 as a Silver Network owned-and-operated station before being rebranded as CBC 87. California Broadcasting Company eventually changed its name to CLP Network in 1972 to avoid confusion with the Canadian Broadcasting Company.

1987 - 2003
In 1992, they added the "6-O'Clock News," which is morning news that broadcasts from 6am to 7am, and in that same year they added the Newswire V1 news package, which lasted for 24 years. The station's graphics package, released in 1987, was updated in 1989, 1992, 1995, 1997, and 1999, but still retained the opening and news talent during the 16 years of this layout. The station commissioned new news talent themes in 2001, along with a news talent, but still kept the 1987 opening.

2003 - 2006
After 16 years, the station commissioned an entirely new graphics package from navy blue and white to teal blue and silver on October 14, 2003, but kept the v1 Newswire music for their news. The intro was changed as well and also added news at 7am until 8am, adding an additional hour of news. Only the weather icons of the previous package remained.

2006 - 2016
It changed its theme again to Red and Navy Blue on April 17, 2006, but again still kept the v1 Newswire music for their news. The intro also changed to a zooming in logo. The new intro was added later on September 16, 2006.

On July 20, 2008, at 12:00 AM, CLP87 reportedly went from 480p to HD720p to fit the flat-screen revolution size, which was a beneficial change. The intro opening was changed from "Live, Your local news, CLP87" to "First in HD, Your local news, CLP87."

In March 2015, the station got HD weather icons, replacing the ones from the 2006 update, but kept the graphics package until 2016.

2016 - Present
On May 20, 2016, the news station re-branded itself, adding a new theme and adding Newswire v2 music, replacing the old one. The theme was changed to teal blue and white. At the same time earlier on March 14, 2013, the station added 4pm and 430pm news (the station only had 5pm, 530pm, and 6pm news with 6pm having sports). Other assets before that change, including the opening narration being replaced with "Your News Now, Local news from CLP87." on that same date, as well as a new weather radar system and an upgrade to hd1080p since June 20, 2012, at 12:00 AM.

Since March 13, 2016, CLP87 news had 7pm news after airing CLP news, as well as 8am news for more coverage.
