ET report on Guiding Light being #1 in the ratings (1984)

This doesn't belong to me. I claim no right and make no profit. Just for entertainment.
June 26, 1984 Entertainment Tonight. Executive producer Gail Kobe, headwriter Pamela Long Hammer, and writer Jeff Ryder are interviewed about the show beating General Hospital in the ratings for 3 weeks. John Beradino is interviewed about why GH's ratings might have been on a decline.
Young and the Restless was actually #1 in the ratings during these three weeks, but I suppose ET felt that GL beating GH in the timeslot made for a more interesting story.
