A Genuine Rarity!
This is the only photo I have ever seen that shows part of the regular ‘Huntley-Brinkley Report’ individual studio sets. All the other “set” photos I’ve seen of them show them together on sets at special events like space shots or political conventions. This is David Brinkley at his WRC-TV Washington desk. Both the floor manager and Brinkley have monitor and clock carts to see the New York feed with Chet Huntley shown in the monitor.
Yup, that’s a really lavish set!
But…but…how can you have a network news show without a billion dollar set that flashes and buzzes and shows all kinds of pictures?
