In 1968, WEWS changed the format of its newscasts slightly to a version of <i><a href="/wiki/Eyewitness_News" title="Eyewitness News">Eyewitness News</a></i>. In 1970, Dave Patterson joined Hambrick on the early newscast and then became co-anchor on the 11 p.m. newscast in 1971. <a href="/wiki/Ted_Henry" title="Ted Henry">Ted Henry</a>, who joined WEWS in 1972 as a behind-the-scenes producer, got his start on the air later in 1975 as a weekend weatherman. In later years, Henry would admit that he, not knowing the slightest thing about forecasting, basically copied his forecasts from a Detroit radio station.<sup id="cite_ref-Henry_retires_61-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Henry_retires-61"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>61<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>That same year, Bill Jacocks—said to be Cleveland's first full-time African-American anchorman<sup id="cite_ref-62" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-62"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>62<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>—joined WEWS. Jacocks started as assistant public affairs director, and became weekend anchor in January 1975. For a solid decade (until 1985) Jacocks remained the one constant weekend anchor while many co-anchors came and went. Among those doing their first Cleveland co-anchor stints with Jacocks were <a href="/wiki/Tim_Taylor_(newscaster)" title="Tim Taylor (newscaster)">Tim Taylor</a> and <a href="/wiki/Wilma_Smith_(newscaster)" title="Wilma Smith (newscaster)">Wilma Smith</a> (both of whom, coincidentally, would later anchor together at rival WJW). </p><p>Hambrick and Patterson continued to anchor the newscasts together until Hambrick left for <a href="/wiki/KABC-TV" title="KABC-TV">KABC-TV</a> in Los Angeles in 1975. At that time, Ted Henry became the weekend anchor, and then a year later in 1976, co-anchor on the weekday evening newscasts with Patterson. Henry continued as the lead anchor until his retirement on May 20, 2009.<sup id="cite_ref-63" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-63"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>63<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This era marked the start of dominance for the WEWS news programs that lasted until well into the 1980s. In 1977, weekend co-anchor Tim Taylor left WEWS to become a weeknight anchor at WJW-TV. Fuldheim's role decreased as she only presented her interviews and commentaries, but still appeared on the air three times a day until retiring in July 1984 at the age of 91. </p><p>WEWS was the first Cleveland TV station to use a news helicopter, introducing "Chopper 5" in 1978. At the time, a cameraman sat partially outside the helicopter door to film the story being covered. TV 5 has used helicopters (on and off) ever since, including the current "Air Tracker 5"—which was introduced in 2016.<sup id="cite_ref-64" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-64"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>64<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The WEWS news department underwent another major change in 1982. Previously, the 5–6 p.m. slot was occupied by <i>The Afternoon Exchange</i>, the afternoon companion to <i>The Morning Exchange</i>.<sup id="cite_ref-WS_HOF_65-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-WS_HOF-65"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>65<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> That year, the program adopted a new format, and was renamed <i>Live on Five</i>. The broadcast was originally hosted by Wilma Smith and Don Webster, and retained many elements from <i>The Afternoon Exchange</i>, such as interviews, movie reviews, health reports, and some cooking segments. Added to the mix were news updates from Ted Henry. </p><p>In 1985, longtime sports director Gib Shanley—who attained national notoriety six years earlier when he burned an <a href="/wiki/Iranian_flag" class="mw-redirect" title="Iranian flag">Iranian flag</a> live on the air during a sportscast in the wake of the <a href="/wiki/Iran_hostage_crisis" title="Iran hostage crisis">Iran hostage crisis</a>—left the station, and was replaced by <a href="/wiki/Nev_Chandler" title="Nev Chandler">Nev Chandler</a>, who became a noted sportscaster in his own right.<sup id="cite_ref-66" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-66"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>66<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="News_Channel_5"><i>News Channel 5</i></h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=WEWS-TV&action=edit&section=11" title="Edit section: News Channel 5"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In 1991, WEWS dropped the long-standing <i>Eyewitness News</i> branding, adopting <i>News Channel 5</i> as a universal branding for newscasts and station promotion. The new branding helped emphasize a format developed by the station the year prior, when WEWS positioned itself as "Cleveland's (Live) 24 Hour NewsSource". Providing news headlines to viewers at times when the station was not carrying regularly scheduled, long-form newscasts, the "24-Hour News Source" concept saw WEWS produce news updates running 30 seconds in length at or near the top of each hour and brief weather updates every half-hour during local commercial break inserts within syndicated and ABC network programs, in addition to the existing half-hourly updates it aired during <i>Good Morning America</i>. The concept would be adopted by network-affiliated television stations in other markets during the early 1990s, as a convenient means for stations to provide news coverage when syndicated or network programming aired. WEWS discontinued production of these hourly updates in 1998.<sup id="cite_ref-WEWS_history_5-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-WEWS_history-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1994, longtime anchor Wilma Smith left the station to sign with rival WJW-TV.<sup id="cite_ref-WS_HOF_65-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-WS_HOF-65"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>65<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The same year, longtime sports director Nev Chandler died of cancer.<sup id="cite_ref-67" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-67"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>67<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>1995 saw a modification to the long-running "Circle 5", tilting it at an angle. At this time, a major promotional campaign was launched for the station, "Give Me 5", as it faced competition from WJW (then-recently having switched to Fox), WKYC (rebuilding themselves after years of being used as NBC's farm team), and WOIO (which had just launched their own news department, in partnership with WUAB).
