It was 7 AM, January 14, 1952 when TODAY debuted on NBC. There were of course a number of innovations that came from the show, but on Day 1, it seems to me that they are already pushing the envelope with a lower third news crawl at the bottom of the screen…AND a time bug which pop in at the 2:15 mark! A television first for a daily news and entertainment program.
