TV networks ready for lighter touch at Democratic convention
A Troy New York reader notes TV news teams will use a lighter approach for the Democratic National Convention coverage starting at 5 p.m. CST. NBC relies on Huntley and Brinkley. CBS shifts to Trout and Mudd. ABC sticks with Smith and Morgan, adding George Gobel for humorous commentary. The piece also mentions NBC adaptation of Profiles in Courage abroad and CBS daytime campaign broadcasts affecting soap operas The Secret Storm The Edge of Night and As The World Turns.
