CBS Evening News is one of the longest-running television news programs, with its history dating back to the 1940s. The format has evolved over decades, making the '61 years' reference plausible for the time this question was written. NBC Nightly News is also long-running but premiered later.

The Big Bang Theory won the 36th People's Choice Award for Favorite TV Comedy and stars Jim Parsons (Sheldon) and Kaley Cuoco (Penny). The show is set at a university in California, though the characters are scientists, not all professors.

This is a creative advertising campaign by Slice (a PepsiCo mango drink brand). The 'Aamsutra' campaign played on the Kamasutra name to position Slice as a pure, authentic mango pleasure experience.

The 'Leaner, Meaner, Fitter' tagline was used by Maruti Suzuki for their K-Series engine lineup. These engines were marketed as more fuel-efficient (leaner), more powerful (meaner in performance terms), and more environmentally friendly (fitter/ cleaner).

Toyota, Hyundai, and Tata have their own engine families but didn't use this specific slogan.

Central Bank of India used the 'Refreshing different ideas' tagline as part of a brand positioning campaign to highlight innovation and customer-centric approaches.

The campaign aimed to differentiate nationalized banks in a competitive market.

Joy Alukkas, a major jewelry retail chain based in South India with global presence, used 'World's favourite Jeweller' as their tagline. This positioned them as an international, trusted brand beyond just regional appeal.

Prince Jewellery and Kerala Fashion Jewellery are regional players without this specific positioning.

The Hindi slogan 'Khule toh baat chale' (roughly 'things work out when opened' or 'freedom to express') was used by Coca-Cola India.

'Speaks for itself' was used by Blenders Pride, a premium Indian whisky brand. This tagline positioned the whisky as so high-quality that its excellence needed no explanation - the product's reputation would speak for itself. Old Monk is a legendary rum ('yon hi ho jaaye'), McDowell's No.1 uses various taglines around celebration, and Contessa is another whisky brand. Blenders Pride specifically used this understated confidence approach to target premium segment consumers.

'Live the Moment' was used by Maruti for the Ritz hatchback positioning. This campaign targeted younger, urban consumers with a message of spontaneity, enjoyment, and living in the now - positioning Ritz as a fun, contemporary car for everyday moments.

Scorpio uses 'Nothing Else Like It', Fortuner is positioned around luxury/reliability, and Lancer (Mitsubishi) had different branding.

'Way of life' and 'Count on us' are both taglines associated with Maruti Suzuki India.

Together, these slogans position Maruti as dependable and essential to Indian consumers.

This nationalist, emotional positioning emphasized Voltas's Tata group heritage, pan-India presence, and understanding of Indian cooling needs. The campaign positioned Voltas against competitors like Daikin (Japanese technology focus) and Videocon/Onida (which had different positioning around features or price).

'Sponsors of Tomorrow' was Intel's global tagline emphasizing how Intel technology powers the future. This positioned Intel as enabling innovation, progress, and future possibilities through their processors and technology.
