Thus Today's Bryant Gumbel, instead of the redoubtable McKay, will be this year's Olympic superanchor. NBC Sportscaster Bob Costas will handle late-night coverage, and Newcomer Gayle Gardner, brought over from ESPN, will co-host much of the daytime broadcasts. Among the veteran NBC hands who will be working their first TV Olympics are Charlie Jones, covering track and field, Marv Albert on boxing and Dick ("Oh my!") Enberg for gymnastics. There will even be new theme music from the ubiquitous John Williams...

The paper said that during 1985 the secretary and her representatives received $115,000 after...
...effort to look different from its morning competitors -- Today and ABC's Good Morning, America -- The Morning Program has come up with something to embarrass everyone. Smith, a straitlaced former anchorman for New York City's WCBS-TV, and Actress Hartley, who once filled in as a Today co-host, engage in strained banter on an elaborately homey set. The show's regular features include personal ads, in which singles promote themselves via 30-second video clips, comedy routines that, good or bad, do not go down easily at 7:55 a.m., and Hartley's dog Daisy, which gets petted...
