	Earlier today on Cable News 21 (Montgomery County, Maryland's 
local newscast), a story was aired about Vice President Al Gore's visit 
to a local elementary school.
	The package's shot sequence want like this:
		- Al Gore in a dark suit, behind a podium, talking
		- Shot of school flag (Gore still talking)
		- Young male student in a dark suit behind same podium
	To us in the control room, it looked like it was another one of 
those Frosted Flakes commercials:
		Gore: I like the Information Superhighway because it is
		      good for America...
		Kid:  But what I /really/ like is the frosted side!

"alt.internet.media-coverage:
	the frosted side of the so-called Information Superhighway."

	If you live in Montgomery County, Maryland and have cable, you can
see repeats of this newscase at 7:30 PM and 10 PM today (3/7), or at 11:30
AM tomorrow, on The Montgomery Channel (Cable 21.) And, be sure to watch
the credits carefully, because three or four of those people work real
hard.  *grin*
