You're a TV news reporter. You've got a hot story but the photographers are on strike. What to do. Here's a "how to" on shooting your own story. Can you spot a young Bill Hemmer in his first news job?
NABET strike of 1987 lasted from June through October. The NFL strike of 1987 forced week 3 games to be cancelled, while weeks 4 - 6 were played by scabs. I's say this was filmed sometime in October 1987.
What year was this? This has to have aired between the early '80s and 1993, because Jerry Springer, the male co-anchor at the end of this video, began with the station in the early '80s and left in 1993 for Chicago.

@tvpirate05 Didn't notice til now the 1986 NBC logo near the end, so this is between 1986 and 1993.

Classic! Looks like the only things to have changed in 30 years or so is the equipment.

@mbsjrcc06 Judging by the NFL and TV, I'd say 1988.
