Here is a transtion from NBC network programming to the local news in Montgomery Alabama. Notice the lack of NBC branding when it smoothly switches back the affiliate.

All tv stations are required by law to identify their call sign and city of origin every hour. Notice how WSFA incorporates this segment smoothly into the news open. Today usually they just pop the call sign on the screen in small letters on many stations if its not part of the news broadcast branding.
