Out of all the various cuts of the WBBM "Nobody Does it Better" promo, this is the cleanest-sounding cut.

[@ericsamuelson5656]

0:28-0:30 was played on Channel 2 News WCBS New York leading to commercials in 1982-83

IMHO, the "Nobody Does It Better" campaign produced the single best local TV news promos ever done. Nothing else even begins to compare.

Bill Kurtis is the narrator of the popular "Anchorman" comedies, which starred Will Ferrell.

He is also the announcer for the NPR Radio game show "Wait! Wait! Don't Tell Me". Love the way he reads the limericks!

WCBS-TV Channel 2 (now CBS 2) New York did a similar "Nobody Does it Better" promo, only with the station's 1978-82 news theme music though.
