From the Jenson Home.... yes.. in a home. See the comments for details... and dont expect Cool Hand Luke to be playing in the open either.. Freaking Warner Music Group slapped a worldwide block on this clip. I was hoping to show this to a curious friend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not many! Kari Lake at KSAZ has spot filled in at times when necessary, but...that's spot duty.

Compare to the '87 & 88 intro of WSVN's 11pm News intro. You'll notice the difference in the NewsCenter 7 Tonight opening. The NBC peacock on their Satellite truck (Skycom 7) in the 1988 11pm open was removed knowing that 'SVN is losing its NBC affiliate to 'TVJ in 1989. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
