[QuadList] Cronkite's first half-hour newscast... count the tape roll ins

[Ted Langdell]

True enough about monitors and sets.

This is from September 1962... so the question would be... did CBS,  
NYC have Intersync on playback machines at that time?  The Geritol  
spot also rolls when taken.

Intersync was introduced at the SMPTE conference in April, 1960.
