Lyrics:



[Intro]


Ooooohh-oh, oh, yeah....
Oh-whoaaaa-uhhh....
Yeah-eah-eah, hey, yeah....

I feel blessed to be a princess, baby... (aspirate offset)
I feel blessed to be a princess... (aspirate offset)

Uh-huh...
Hoooooooh-hoooooh....
Yeah-eah, baby...



[Verse 1]

Once upon a time, I was a girl with my father
But tragedy struck me with the loss that I suffer
I scrubbed the floor and I was crying in tears (aspirate offset)
Baby, I can't do anything right out of fear (sob-choked)



[Pre-Chorus] 

But in the dark of night, a light begins to shine 
A voice inside my spirit says that I will be just fine 
I close my weary eyes and wash away the pain 
Knowing that tomorrow I will rise up once again


[Chorus]


I feel blessed to be a princess (Telephone effect: Oh, yes, I do...)
And I'm never gonna do anything in excess
I'm gonna try to climb up the hill
Cuz I know that I always will (sob-choked)


[Ad-lib]


Ooooh-hooo, yeah...
Baby, baby, baby, I always will...
Uhhhh-huuuhhh...

[Verse 2]


I was getting ready for the ball
But my dress was torn at all
I fled to the garden and began to cry
Crying out made me wanna die (sob-choked)



[Pre-Chorus] 

But in the dark of night, a light begins to shine 
A voice inside my spirit says that I will be just fine 
I close my weary eyes and wash away the pain 
Knowing that tomorrow I will rise up once again

I feel blessed to be a princess (Telephone effect: Oh, yes, I do...)
And I'm never gonna do anything in excess
I'm gonna try to climb up the hill

I got myself locked in my room
Trying to set me free
Something inside in my soul
Says I want to be me  (sob-choked)

Hey, yeah....  (sob-choked)
I feel blessed to be a princessssssssss!!!!!!  (sob-choked)

Cuz I know that I always will
(Whistle register: Whoaaaaaauhhhhh, baabbbbyyy....)




I feel blessed to be a princess (Telephone effect: Oh, yes, I do...)
And I'm never gonna do anything in excess
I'm gonna try to climb up the hill
Cuz I know that I always will

[Outro]


I always will, baby... (sob-choked)
I always will.... (sob-choked)
(Oh, yes, I do, baby, I do...)

Lyrics:



[Intro]


(spoken telephone effect: Mirror mirror on the wall, who's the fairest of them all 2X)

Ouuuhhhhhh...
Hey, yeah....



[Verse 1] 

(Soft, emotional, heavy acoustic piano)


I've spent a lifetime trapped inside your glass 
Hiding every shadow, praying it would pass 
But the cracks are starting to show, yeah 
And I'm finally letting go... 
I'm gonna break my chains.


[Pre-Chorus] 


I'm standing at the edge of the crashing waves 
Breaking out of the silence that kept me enslaved (Gasping for air, crying out)
Oh, I feel a change coming over me now! 
I've gotta scream it out loud, somehow!



[Chorus]


Mirror mirror on the wall, who's the fairest of them all
(ad-lib: Oh, baby...)
Please tell me that you're gonna love me
And I'm gonna love you till time ends quickly


[Ad-lib]


Ooh-whoaaaauhhhh...
Yeah, baby, baby...
(telephone effect Spoken: Mirror mirror on the wall, who's the fairest of them all)


[Verse 2] 

(Bass and drums keep the groove driving, vocals getting more soulful with aspirate offsets) 


Look at these eyes, they don't cry the same tears 
I'm sweeping away twenty years of your fears 
You told me perfection was the only way to be loved 
But I found a crown of my own, sent from above 
Yeah, I'm rewriting my history today...




[Pre-Chorus] 


I'm standing at the edge of the crashing waves 
Breaking out of the silence that kept me enslaved (Gasping for air, crying out) 
Oh, I feel a change coming over me now! 
I've gotta scream it out loud, somehow!




[Chorus]



Mirror mirror on the wall, who's the fairest of them all
(ad-lib: Oh, baby...)
Please tell me that you're gonna love me
And I'm gonna love you till time ends quickly


[Bridge] 
(Music strips back to just a pumping B3 organ and heavy handclaps, building to a fever pitch) 


I don't need your validation anymore (No, no, no!) 
I see the woman walking through that door (Yeah!) 
The fairest of them all is the one who set herself free! 
Look at me now! Look at me now!



[Ad-lib]


Oh-whoaaa, yeah-eah...
Mirror mirror on the wall...

Please tell me that you're gonna love me
And I'm gonna love you till time ends quickly

The theme tune for Princess of the Future, a fictional Disney princess film, is Survival by Anthony Hobson for De Wolfe Music.


Landscapes by Paul Lawler for De Wolfe Music is an I Want tune in Princess of the Future.

Current affairs on television

The CBS World News Roundup is America's longest-running network radio newscast.

For its March 1938 launch, the CBS World News Roundup featured on-the-scene reports from multiple locations around the world being linked with a centralized newsreader for a national broadcast.


Edward R. Murrow, who had headed the European operations of CBS News since 1937, had scored his major breakthrough in March 1938 with the Austria situation.



During the post-war era, Edward R. Murrow met a young radio producer named Fred W. Friendly.



Having been in radio since 1937, Fred W. Friendly was the aggressive force behind the scenes.

Edward R. Murrow, meanwhile, honed his news reporting skills as the European leader of CBS News during WWII, especially in London.




Together, both Edward R. Murrow and Fred W. Friendly collaborated in the 1948 spoken-word album called I Can Hear It Now (1933-1945), with 2 follow-ups released in 1949 and 1950.

Due to the huge success of this 1948 spoken-word album, coupled with those of its 2 follow-ups, both Edward R. Murrow and Fred W. Friendly parlayed them into a weekly program.



Hear It Now, which served as the brainchild of both Edward R. Murrow and Fred W. Friendly, lasted 6 months, starting in mid-December 1950.





Just before Edward R. Murrow, newscasts on television was divided into three separate formulas:


  • Newsreels are short films depicting news events around the world and being offered to movie theatres with on-location visuals


  • Documentaries take an in-depth look at controversial or inspirational subjects



  • Radio news features individuals delivering the day's news stories in an unseen audio form



On-location films (honed in such newsreels as Hearst Metrotone), in-depth documents (honed in I Can Hear It Now) and a clear delivery (honed in radio) forge TV news via Edward R. Murrow.





Studio 41, which was at Grand Central Terminal, housed the CBS Television control room, which was being used for Edward R. Murrow's See It Now.





Person to Person, which Edward R. Murrow had also hosted, features celebrities in their homes from a comfortable chair in his New York studio, pioneering the celebrity interview concept.

One of the noted guests on the original Person to Person version is the sex icon Marilyn Monroe.



Marilyn Monroe was on Edward R. Murrow's original Person to Person version, the broadcast of which emanated from the home of her business partner and photographer Milton Greene.




During this Person to Person broadcast, Marilyn Monroe promoted her mid-1950's film The Seven Year Itch, which is one of her best and most famous films.





Marilyn Monroe wears a white dress being used in the best-known scene of The Seven Year Itch.

In the best-known scene of The Seven Year Itch, Marilyn Monroe's white skirt is being blown up by a subway grate wind, conveying a hot, sexy and charismatic side.




Ever since her 1962 death, the iconic and famous white skirt in Marilyn Monroe's The Seven Year Itch motion picture, where it's blown by a subway grate, has been depicted, represented and imitated.

September 1954 is when Marilyn Monroe's iconic and famous scene, in which her white dress is being blown by a subway grate, was originally shot in New York for The Seven Year Itch.


For Marilyn Monroe's flying white skirt scene in The Seven Year Itch, its location is outside the former Trans-Lux Theatre on Lexington Avenue in New York.


Likewise, in September 1954, Marilyn Monroe also makes 2 kisses being blown to the cameras for The Seven Year Itch, using the hand first, then her lips, with hot and sexy charisma.

Idlewild Airport houses Marilyn Monroe's 2 kisses to the cameras for The Seven Year Itch in 1954.





Ever since her 1962 death, the iconic and famous 2 Idlewild kisses to the cameras in Marilyn Monroe's The Seven Year Itch film has also been depicted, represented and imitated, like her white dress.



Marilyn Monroe's flying white dress scene and her 2 Idlewild kisses being blown to the cameras, both behind the scenes for The Seven Year Itch in 1954, are two of her most enduring and sexiest pics.

In addition, Marilyn Monroe's flying white skirt and her 2 Idlewild kisses to the cameras, both for The Seven Year Itch, are two of the most famous pop culture pics ever, also sexy ones.




Overall, mid-September 1954 (late-summer 1954) is when Marilyn Monroe's white dress scene and her kisses to the cameras, both for The Seven Year Itch, convey hot and sexy youth.


Edward R. Murrow starts his London reports with "This is London," with an emphasis on "This."

The iconic sign-off for Edward R. Murrow is "Good night, and good luck."




60 Minutes (CBS) is the spiritual (and professional) heir to two of the innovative and groundbreaking television programs being hosted by Edward R. Murrow: See It Now and Person to Person.







Ever since, 60 Minutes (CBS) has usually used chroma key technology to place its signature black and open-magazine graphics behind journalists during intros and story transitions.



Journalists stand/sit in front of a blue/green backdrop in the studio for 60 Minutes (CBS).

Control room equipment digitally replaces the solid chroma key colour background with the iconic and famous branding for 60 Minutes (CBS), graphics and story previews.





Panorama is television's longest-running current affairs program, with the BBC as its incubator.

Dennis Bardens and Andrew Miller-Jones are 2 individuals who co-created this influential, iconic and world-famous Panorama (BBC) program in November 1953.



Upon its debut, Panorama (BBC) was a casual magazine that featured arts and entertainment.

Max Robertson served as the second anchor of Panorama (BBC), but also its first regular one when it returned in December 1953 after its first edition suffered mishaps in November.




Spurred by the threat of commercial competition from ITV, Panorama (BBC) made its relaunch under Grace Wyndham Goldie, with Richard Dimbleby as its main anchor.

Having been a news reporter during WWII, but also its leading news commentator, Richard Dimbleby turned Panorama (BBC) into a serious, hard-hitting investigative documentary program.

Editing Panorama (BBC) upon its relaunch as a hard-hitting powerhouse was Michael Peacock.



Due to its relaunch, spurred by the threat of commercial competition from ITV, Panorama (BBC) was known as "Television's Window to the World."




Responding to the debut of the ITV network, the Toddlers' Truce, a policy being implemented after the Second World War to take a television break for 1 hour at 6 p.m., was abolished.



Mid-February 1957 marked the beginning of not 1, but 2 programs to fill this gap being caused by the Toddlers' Truce on the BBC Television Service.





With ITV making its premiere, Cliff Michelmore responded by launching Highlight, a short-lived daily current affairs program for BBC Television, which, for 10 minutes, had sharp interviews.

Producing Cliff Michelmore's Highlight (BBC) were Donald Baverstock and Alasdair Milne.



Cliff Michelmore, with Donald Baverstock and Alasdair Milne, upscaled Highlight as Tonight.

The main inspiration for Tonight (BBC), which began its 8-year tenure on February 18, 1957 under its anchor Cliff Michelmore, came from Dave Garroway's Today (NBC).




Some of the noted personnel for Tonight (BBC) under Cliff Michelmore include Alan Whicker.





For Alan Whicker, he served as a reporter on Tonight (BBC) upon its February 18, 1957 debut.

Nearly 2 years after Tonight (BBC) made its mid-February 1957 debut, Alan Whicker hosted his own regular segment travelling the world.

After Tonight (BBC) had its demise in the mid-1960's or prior to 1966, Alan Whicker's globe-trotting segment Whicker's World was spun-off as a series.




Hosted by Cliff Michelmore, Tonight (BBC) is the midweek answer to Panorama (BBC).

Grace Wyndham Goldie presided over Panorama (BBC), which Richard Dimbleby anchored, but also Tonight (BBC), which Cliff Michelmore hosted.



The nationally-televised coverage of the second British general election being held under Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II in the late-1950's solved the issues of the past televised ones.

Whereas the past televised British general elections in the 1950's used box-like studios, the late-1950's British general election had more dynamic and modern American-style studio sets.




Echoing televised early-1950's US election nights from New York, influenced by Chicago's television philosophy, the second British general election under the Queen did the same.

Due to the efforts of the Tonight (BBC) personnel, including Cliff Michelmore and Alan Whicker, the American-style newsroom/bullpen became a studio feature for the BBC's general election nights.




Conversely, ITN used a box-like studio for its televised coverage of the second British general election being held under the Queen in the late-1950's, despite being named a newsroom.

In most of the subsequent UK general elections, ITN used the American-style newsroom/bullpen.



Likewise, for the late-1950's British general election, both the BBC and ITN used computers being just smaller than the UNIVAC I: the Ella and the English Electric DEUCE.





Made by Elliott Brothers, the Ella was a computer used for the BBC's late-1950's election coverage.

The DEUCE stands for the Digital Electronic Universal Computing Engine; it was designed by English Electric; for ITN's first general election; it was based at Stafford in the West Midlands via ATV.



Both the Ella and the DEUCE served as the British answers to the UNIVAC I for the late-1950's British general election on both BBC Television and ITV.

Plus, the teletypes being included in this newsroom/bullpen studio set of the BBC's nationally-televised late-1950's British general election emanated from the Press Association at Fleet Street.




Overall, the late-1950's British general election serves as the modern blueprint for nationally-televised election broadcasts and expanded television news from Britain.



Whether on BBC1 or ITV, the 6 p.m. hour is filled by local, national and international news, though the latter paired the newscasts with a soap opera over most regions.

Heidi Klum and Tyra Banks in a seasonal/astronomical twist

Heidi Klum's birth on June 1, 1973 coincides with the first day of summer in the Northern Hemisphere under the weather system, with the astronomical one on the 20th or 21st.

In the Northern Hemisphere, summer uses high heat and extended daylight, which proves true to Heidi Klum as a summer girl.




Representing summer is the heat of both the fire and the sun, which is proven true to Heidi Klum, not simply in her birth, but her hot, sexy, sultry and fiery summer girl image/persona.

Summer also reflects the hot, sexy, sultry and fiery heat of Heidi Klum's public image.



Like a wildfire held in the summer, Heidi Klum sets the world on sexual fire; she is indeed a hot, sexy, sultry, charismatic and emotional girl with a high-energy summer vibe.

Decades after her breakthrough, Heidi Klum's hot and sexy legacy is unextinguished.



Besides, the Water element represents Heidi Klum in her soul, emotion and youth.

Mirroring human tears, rain uses water drops, which holds true to Heidi Klum as a water girl. 



Using wet hair for Heidi Klum conveys soul, emotion and youth.




Water represents the lowest and the deepest frequencies, but also the dark and mysterious depths of the ocean; this holds true for Heidi Klum.

A husky, sultry voice like Heidi Klum's mirrors moving water's fluid, echoing quality.





Likewise, Heidi Klum is also a female figure born just 20 days before the end of spring in the Northern Hemisphere under the astronomical system.





Spring has the Wood element symbolizing youth, true to Heidi Klum as a youthful icon.

Having been aligned with the fixed Wood element, the spring season also represents Heidi Klum in her creativity, energy and growth.

Like a tree being cut down for wood, Heidi Klum chops down the traditional female mold.






Besides, as a girl/woman born on a day with the Gemini Sun sign, Heidi Klum is a witty, youthful and sparkling female icon with a breathy voice.




Conversely, the Air element is tied into Heidi Klum's iconic and world-famous flying dress scene, but represents her voice as having a sexy and gentle breeze as well.





The Ox, having an earthy nature, also represents Heidi Klum in her resilience. 



Sagittarius, which uses a fiery nature, represents Tyra Banks in her vibrant beauty, warmth, genius and inner star power, but also in her energy and as a spark of the global sexual revolution.

Using the fiery nature of the Sagittarius zodiac, Tyra Banks sets the world on sexual fire; in fact, she is deemed hot, sexy and sultry with charisma, charm, energy, passion and raw emotions.


Plus, the Sagittarius, having a fiery nature, fits Tyra Banks as Hollywood's summer girl.



Likewise, the December 4, 1973 birth of Tyra Banks coincides with winter's fourth day in the Northern Hemisphere under the weather system, with the astronomical one on the 20th or 21st.

In the Northern Hemisphere, winter is cold, despite Tyra Banks as Hollywood's summer girl.





For Tyra Banks, despite the cold winter, she sets the world on sexual fire; indeed, she has a hot, sexy, sultry, charismatic and emotional persona with a high-energy summer vibe.

Ever since her breakthrough, Tyra Banks' fiery hot and sexy legacy has been unextinguished.




December is a month synonymous with the winter season being aligned with the Water element, which represents Tyra Banks in her soul, emotion and youth.

Standing in the pouring rain gives Tyra Banks soulful performances.


Using wet hair for Tyra Banks conveys soul, emotion and youth.



The Water element represents the lowest and the deepest frequencies, but also the dark and mysterious depths of the ocean; this holds true for Tyra Banks.

A husky, sultry voice like Tyra Banks' mirrors moving water's fluid, echoing quality.



Likewise, the Ox, having an earthy nature, also represents Tyra Banks in her resilience. 


Three dimensions define Tyra Banks' work that echoes the title of Marilyn Monroe's early-1950's film being released after her breakthrough in 1950:


  • As young as she feels: Young, hot, sexy, sultry, dynamic, energetic, classy, emotive, passionate, beautiful, vibrant, soulful, fierce/fiery, gut-wrenching and poignant

  • As young as she looks: Young, hot, sexy, sultry, steamy, seductive, beautiful, charismatic, kind, charming, fierce/fiery, gorgeous and emotive

  • As young as she sounds: Young, hot, sexy, sultry, beautiful, smooth, steamy, seductive, soulful, fierce/fiery, choked-back, gut-wrenching and emotive


Similarly, both Heidi Klum and Tyra Banks are iconic and world-famous 1973-born models, but also former Victoria's Secret Angels and close friends for 20+ years.

Plus, both Heidi Klum and Tyra Banks are hot, sexy, soulful and emotive 1973-born girls.

Regular news studio set designs on a local basis inspired by Dave Garroway

The Chicago School of Television is a creative television philosophy being rooted in its namesake; its purpose is to counter New York's theatrical/radio grandeur and Hollywood's cinematic glamour.

Such noted techniques involving television's Chicago School include walking personalities, addresses directly to viewers, fluid/moving camerawork and studio sets as three-dimensional/3D canvases.




When regular commercial television operations began in New York, many programs have incorporated theatrical proscenium or radio layouts, separating the stage from the audience area.

In other words, the early studio set designs used by many programs coming from the New York-centric television scene were like a cardboard box, but also two-dimensional/2D canvases.

Besides, New York-centric television also used fixed/static shots, together with loud talkers.




During the early post-war era, some television programs came from Chicago, where Dave Garroway served as a radio disc jockey on WMAQ-AM.

Using a microphone to convey his laid-back delivery, radio was Dave Garroway's early passion.




Snapping fingers circumvents applause for Dave Garroway's early radio programs on WMAQ-AM.




For his eponymous Garroway at Large program, Dave Garroway broke television's old traditions for a more casual approach, in which the reality of the studio was acknowledged.

Using one camera, Dave Garroway walked around large studios and simple abstract sets as he directly talked to guests and television viewers for his eponymous Garroway at Large program.



April 1949 is when Dave Garroway's Garroway at Large program started its run as a local program on WNBQ, before airing on a national basis on NBC, starting in June 1949.



Just over 2 years after NBC started Dave Garroway's eponymous Garroway at Large program, its rival CBS responded by launching See It Now with Edward R. Murrow in November.

Hear It Now, which served as a former weekly radio adaptation of the I Can Hear It Now spoken-word album series, is, in turn, the basis for Edward R. Murrow's See It Now (CBS).

The CBS Television control room at Studio 41 in Grand Central Terminal houses Edward R. Murrow's innovative and groundbreaking See It Now television program.




Dave Garroway's Garroway at Large (NBC) used moving cameras and unpainted studio walls, whereas Edward R. Murrow's See It Now (CBS) featured a control room with monitors.

Both Dave Garroway's Garroway at Large (NBC) and Edward R. Murrow's See It Now (CBS) rejected cardboard box-like sets and exposed real technical television production.




NBC also pioneered a new formula of television: early-morning television, which is being offered via Today (NBC), initially coming from the RCA Exhibition Hall.




Situated in the Rockefeller Centre complex, the RCA Exhibition Hall is based directly across from the iconic and famous headquarters of the Associated Press at 50 Rockefeller Plaza.

Contrasting to the iconic headquarters of the Associated Press, which represented print journalism, the RCA Exhibition Hall represented electronic media's fluid and transparent future.




Inside the RCA Exhibition Hall, parts of which were converted into the first Today (NBC) studio, was a newsroom/bullpen being adapted from the Associated Press at 50 Rockefeller Plaza.

Juxtaposing print journalism's industrial past, via the AP at 50 Rock, with electronic media's transparent future, via the RCA Exhibition Hall, the Today (NBC) bullpen was a television innovation.



Next to the Today (NBC) bullpen at the RCA Exhibition Hall was a desk, based behind a backdrop with clocks and television monitors.

Besides, Today (NBC) featured pedestrians on the street looking through the glass windows of the RCA Exhibition Hall to watch this program.



Plus, teletypes that came from the Associated Press (AP), United Press (UP) and the International News Service (INS) were used inside the Today (NBC) newsroom/bullpen at the RCA Exhibition Hall.

The on-screen ticker being adapted from the wire services in the Today (NBC) newsroom/bullpen at the RCA Exhibition Hall, featuring a clock display being adapted from clocks, was used.

Due to technical difficulties and having lacked viewer traction, this on-screen ticker being adapted from wire feeds for Today (NBC) was dropped after just a few months.



Undoing the past, Today (NBC) under Dave Garroway births modern broadcast design elements.

Some of the innovations surrounding the RCA Exhibition Hall for Today (NBC) under Dave Garroway include a newsroom/bullpen, a street-side studio, a news ticker and a clock display.



This borderless room, located at the RCA Exhibition Hall for Today (NBC) under Dave Garroway, was made in-house by NBC's engineering units and RCA's corporate exhibition teams.



With the RCA Exhibition Hall as its first base, Today (NBC) doubled down on the Chicago Style being honed at Dave Garroway's eponymous Garroway at Large program.

Likewise, with Dave Garroway at the helm for Today (NBC), the RCA Exhibition Hall bridged the gap between the Chicago Style, the AP newsroom/bullpen and the See It Now control room.




For Today (NBC), under Dave Garroway, the RCA Exhibition Hall mixed Chicago's creativity with the industrial newsroom/bullpen (AP) and the technical network news nerve centre (CBS).





The early-1950's US presidential election, the second one being held during the Cold War period, was likewise the first to offer television coverage on a massive and multi-faceted level.

For the early-1950's US presidential election, the newly-completed microwave/coaxial system via the American Telephone & Telegraph Company solved the issues of the past televised ones.




Chicago, in which Dave Garroway pioneered a casual television style being brought to New York, also hosted the political conventions in the early-1950's at the International Amphitheatre.

For the Republican National Convention in this early-1950's era, it was the first to be presented live on television on a national level.



Whereas past conventions, including the 1948 gatherings, were simply being televised all over the East Coast, Chicago's political conventions in the early-1950's were televised nationwide.




Using the air conditioning process being installed at the International Amphitheatre, Chicago's political conventions, held in the early-1950's, were the first to do so.



Just before Chicago's major political conventions in the early-1950's era, summer political conventions notoriously suffered heat in venues without A/C, making citizens sweaty.

However, the addition of the A/C process and the American Telephone & Telegraph Company's coaxial television uplink for Chicago's early-1950's political conventions helped modernize these rituals.



For these early-1950's political rituals, held at the International Amphitheatre in Chicago, the major US television networks erected makeshift broadcast booths inside the convention halls.

The television service with the most notice to cover Chicago's political conventions in this early-1950's period was CBS, which brought Walter Cronkite to national prominence.




Echoing Dave Garroway taking Chicago's techniques with him to New York for Today (NBC) upon its launch in the early-1950's, the Chicago political conventions led to the New York election nights.

Similar to the newsroom/bullpen being adapted from the print field by Today (NBC) for television, the major US television networks used this print-style trend for their early-1950's elections.




For Walter Cronkite, he put this newsroom/bullpen, adapted from his former United Press service, on television's political map, but also on the map of the windowless TV studio structure, via CBS.



Plus, this nationally-televised coverage of the early-1950's US presidential election was the first to be driven by computers.

One of the computers being utilized for this nationally-televised early-1950's US presidential election coverage was the UNIVAC I from Remington Rand.




Standing for the Universal Automatic Computer I, the UNIVAC I was innovative in that it was the first American-made general-purpose commercial electronic digital computer.

Magnetic tape was for mass storage and mercury delay lines for memory, both for the UNIVAC I.




With the real UNIVAC 1 iteration being deemed too heavy to carry from Philadelphia to New York, its mock-up prop was installed at CBS' unified Studios 41/42 in New York's Grand Central Terminal.

For this mock-up UNIVAC I prop, it featured blinking Christmas tree lights to create a futuristic visual effect for CBS' nationally-televised early-1950's US presidential election coverage.





NBC adapted the newsroom/bullpen from the print scene for television under Dave Garroway.

CBS adapted this newsroom/bullpen element from NBC as a studio set feature being placed in a usual structure without street-side windows for TV journalism under Walter Cronkite.

In the early-1950's, CBS Television innovated the newsroom/bullpen trend for televised election night coverage, in the mid-1960's with an evening news twist, and in March 1973 with a local twist.




For Search/Probe (1972-1973), the Probe Control Centre is a fictional room based on NASA's Mission Control Centre.

What describes the Probe Control Centre for Search/Probe (1972-1973) is the fact that it uses a similar monitor matrix to the real-life NASA Mission Control Centre.




Designing the Probe Control Centre for Search/Probe (1972-1973) is Fred Harpman.

The Probe Control Centre, which Fred Harpman had created for Search/Probe (1972-1973), is a direct inspiration for his television design for its network NBC called the NewsCentre.




Also inspiring Fred Harpman's NewsCentre studio design, in addition to Search/Probe (1972-1973), are Fantastic Voyage and Star Trek, both of which premiered in 1966.



Using architectural geometry, angled desks and glass partitions, Fred Harpman's NewsCentre set design endures a contrast with traditional 2D cardboard box-like ones.

Besides, the NewsCentre design by Fred Harpman features NASA-like banks of active video feeds/data monitors.

In addition, mezzanine/stairs also add to Fred Harpman's NewsCentre design.




Rooted in Hollywood's science fiction genre, Fred Harpman's high-tech and cinematic NewsCentre set design was made to have a working newsroom feel.

Plus, Fred Harpman's high-tech and cinematic NewsCentre studio design mirrored the boundless room inside the RCA Exhibition Hall for Today (NBC) under Dave Garroway.

Fred Harpman's NewsCentre is also based on Edward R. Murrow's See It Now (CBS) control room.




December 12, 1973 is when WNBC-TV announced that its own movie block called Movie 4 would be cancelled on April 26, 1974 as part of its plans for a 2-hour newscast called NewsCentre 4.

April 29, 1974 is when NewsCentre 4 on WNBC-TV made its debut.



So successful was the NewsCentre philosophy, in branding, visuals and design, which WNBC-TV had originated, that NBC's other owned-and-operated television stations began using this one.

NBC commissioned modular clones of its NewsCentre design by Fred Harpman.



Ever since the NewsCentre studio set design that Fred Harpman had created for NBC, which began on April 29, 1974, television news studio set designs have been split into 2 camps.



One camp for television news studio designs has tradtional cardboard box-like designs.

For CBS, besides these box-like designs, this traditional television news design camp also features the print-style newsroom/bullpen for television.




Incidentally, this CBS newsroom/bullpen being used for television mirrored the borderless room being based inside the RCA Exhibition Hall for Today (NBC) under Dave Garroway.



As for NBC, its NewsCentre camp has a more modern, futuristic, cinematic and dynamic style than the cardboard box-like ones and the print-style CBS television newsroom/bullpen.




Just before the News Hour, BCTV had not fared well since its 1960 inception.

Instead, television viewers in British Columbia got to watch the early-evening newscasts south of the world's longest unguarded border, especially the CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite.




KIRO-TV, KTNT (now KSTW) and KVOS-TV, all of which were CBS stations serving Seattle and the Puget Sound, aired the CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite.





Concentrating on KIRO-TV, it carried the CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite in its entirety from September 1962 until March 6, 1981.

Briefly, KTNT shared the CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite with KIRO-TV from April 1962 to September 1962.

As for KVOS-TV, it partly aired the CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite until around 1980. 




During its first 5 years, from mid-November 1948 until early-March 1953, KING-TV had a television monopoly in the Pacific Northwest.

KING-TV, the first television station in the Pacific Northwest upon its November 1948 inception, was named after the radio station, in turn, the basis for its owner King Broadcasting Company.





See It Now with Edward R. Murrow was seen on CBS over KING-TV; this was a fitting manner, since Edward R. Murrow graduated from Washington State University in 1930.





In the late-1960's era, under the efforts of both Ray Peters and Cameron Bell, BCTV decided to launch Canada's first ever hour-long newscast called the News Hour.



Just 7 years later, in 1975, BCTV introduced a unique concept in television news studio set design, one that would synthesize 2 camps together.



For BCTV, it had the NBC camp - the print-style newsroom/bullpen being used by Today (NBC) at the RCA Exhibition Hall under Dave Garroway.

One of the noted Today (NBC) viewers was Ray Peters, who led BCTV.





Likewise, BCTV had the CBS camp - Edward R. Murrow's See It Now control room.

Incidentally, Edward R. Murrow's See It Now program is CBS' answer to Dave Garroway's eponymous Garroway at Large program on NBC.



Upon its June 1, 1980 launch, CNN used its BCTV-inspired hybrid newsroom-control room studio set design, which serves as the DNA for 24-hour television news.

BCTV, incidentally, juxtaposed CBS (bullpen, Robert Wussler, Daniel Schorr, Bernard Shaw and Sam Zelman) with NBC (NewsCentre, Mary Alice Williams and Jim Kitchell), all used by CNN.



Emii (Emily Rose Morrison)

Emii (b. 1984), also known as Emily Rose Morrison, is a pop rock singer.


December 4, 1984 is when Emii (Emily Rose Morrison) was born.


Aretha Franklin, Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey are just some of the greatest and most influential figures in both pop culture and music for using soulful vocal techniques.

Mamie Smith, Ma Rainey, Bessie Smith and Mahalia Jackson are some of the notably influential icons paving the way for Aretha Franklin, Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey.


The choked-back, soulful and emotive singing vocals by Emii (Emily Rose Morrison) are inspired by Christina Aguilera.



Having worked with Emii (Emily Rose Morrison) is Adrian Gurvitz, who, with Cream member Ginger Baker, is involved in Baker Gurvitz Army.

Ginger Baker is with Eric Clapton with both Cream and Blind Faith.



Eric Clapton, in turn, works with the Yardbirds, which also have Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page.

Jimmy Page forms Led Zeppelin with Robert Plant, John Paul Jones and John Bonham

As for Jeff Beck, he works with Rod Stewart, Nicky Hopkins, Cozy Powell, Jan Hammer and Narada Michael Walden.



In addition, Adrian Gurvitz works with Disney producing the Disneymania albums.




For Emii (Emily Rose Morrison), she has brown hair with a red hue, like Ariel in the 1989 Disney film called The Little Mermaid.


Plus, Emii (Emily Rose Morrison) is a modern Annette Funicello, but with a soulful twist.

In fact, Marilyn Monroe, Aretha Franklin and Annette Funicello have all smiles for Madonna, Mariah Carey, Britney Spears, Xtina, Beyoncé and Emii (Emily Rose Morrison).



Marilyn Monroe attended University High School (Uni) from February to June 1942, just a few months before Annette Funicello's October 1942 birth.



The Sagittarius represents Emii (Emily Rose Morrison) in her warmth, genius and inner star power.

Using the fiery nature of the Sagittarius, Emii (Emily Rose Morrison) sets the world on indie fire; she deems herself hot, sexy and sultry with charisma, charm, energy, passion and raw emotions.


Plus, the Sagittarius, having a fiery nature, fits Emii (Emily Rose Morrison) as a summer girl.



Besides, the December 4, 1984 birth of Emii (Emily Rose Morrison) is also in winter's 4th day in the Northern Hemisphere under the weather system, with the astronomical one on the 20th or 21st.

In the Northern Hemisphere, winter is cold, despite Emii (Emily Rose Morrison) as a summer girl.



December is a month synonymous with the winter season being aligned with the Water element, which represents Emii (Emily Rose Morrison) in her soul, emotion and youth.




Water represents the lowest and the deepest frequencies, but also the dark and mysterious depths of the ocean; this holds true for Emii (Emily Rose Morrison).

A husky, sultry voice like Emii (Emily Rose Morrison) mirrors moving water's fluid, echoing quality.




The Rat, having a watery nature, also represents Emii (Emily Rose Morrison) in her soul, emotion and youth.




With the water combined with the fire to create steam, the sexy and soulful appeal of Emii (Emily Rose Morrison) is an elusive, misty and atmospheric icon.

Even the heavy rain/water droplets cannot dim/extinguish the fire of Emii (Emily Rose Morrison)



Using the steam, Emii (Emily Rose Morrison) delivers sexy, sultry and steamy performances.






Stilettos by Emii (Emily Rose Morrison) is a dance-pop/EDM tune with sob-choked vocals.

The Middle (Zedd) has Emii (Emily Rose Morrison) delivering her sob-choked, soulful and emotional singing voice and A.J. Larsen doing guitar, which is available on YouTube over emiiofficial.



For Emii (Emily Rose Morrison), her acoustic guitar version of The Middle (Zedd), with guitar by A.J. Larsen, is described as a Disney princess anthem, but with a soulful twist.



Plus, both Britney Spears and Emii (Emily Rose Morrison) have ties to the Disney brand.




Having been a Mouseketeer, Britney Spears is in the 1990's version of the Mickey Mouse Club.

Meanwhile, Emii (Emily Rose Morrison) works with Disneymania producer Adrian Gurvitz.

.



In addition, both Britney Spears and Emii (Emily Rose Morrison) are Sagittarius girls born in 1981 and 1984.







Lowell Thomas delivered the first television news broadcast on a commercial level on July 1, 1941 via WNBT (and NBC), which Sunoco sponsored, at fifteen minutes to 7 p.m. (or a quarter to 7).

Richard Hubbell also had the second commercial TV newscast at 8 p.m. via WCBW (and CBS), which came after Lowell Thomas' Sunoco newscast on WNBT (and NBC), also on July 1, 1941.



This 8 p.m. WCBW newscast, which Richard Hubbell delivered, went against Lowell Thomas' Sunoco newscast on WNBT, the world's first regular news competition for commercial television.




Douglas Edwards is the first television news individual on both a national and an on-camera basis.

In addition, Douglas Edwards is also the first newsreader on television to use videotape for time-delay broadcasts.


The Ampex VRX-1000, with quadruplex videotape, used Douglas Edwards with the News on CBS.



For Douglas Edwards, he is one of the individuals who succeeded Richard Hubbell as the WCBW-TV newsreader.




John Facenda is the main news anchor for WCAU-TV from 1948 to 1973, during which it became the ratings leader in the Delaware Valley.

Some notable innovations shaping the modern local television news concept, which John Facenda had pioneered at WCAU-TV, include the 11 p.m. news and a four-person news team.

Plus, WCAU-TV is a pioneer of the format being used in television news: news-sports-weather.



During its first decade since its debut in late-May 1948, WCAU-TV was a CBS network station being owned by the Philadelphia Bulletin newspaper.





The Levy brothers, which ran WCAU during WWII, have their brother-in-law William S. Paley.

Since William S. Paley served as the brother-in-law of the Levy brothers, WCAU served as one of the original CBS affiliates.





Altogether, both Douglas Edwards and John Facenda are the first individuals to be presenting the news stories of the day on television in front of the camera on both a national and a local level.

Whereas early newscasts relied on newsreels, audio-over-slides or behind the camera readers à la radio news, both Douglas Edwards and John Facenda were telegenic newsreaders.



Lowell Thomas and Richard Hubbell were pioneering news individuals on television.




Both the Golden Spike connection via DuMont station WDTV and the historic speech to the Japanese Peace Treaty Conference by Harry S. Truman led to network television.




When regular commercial television operations began in New York, many programs have incorporated theatrical proscenium or radio layouts, separating the stage from the audience area.

In other words, the early studio set designs used by many programs coming from the New York-centric television scene were like a cardboard box, but also two-dimensional/2D canvases.

Besides, New York-centric television also used fixed/static shots, together with loud talkers.




During the early post-WWII era, some television programs were from Chicago, where Dave Garroway served as a radio disc jockey on WMAQ-AM.



For his eponymous Garroway at Large program, Dave Garroway broke television's old traditions for a more casual approach, in which the reality of the studio was acknowledged.

Using one camera, Dave Garroway walked around large studios and simple abstract sets as he directly talked to guests and television viewers for his eponymous Garroway at Large program.




Just over 2 years after NBC started Dave Garroway's eponymous Garroway at Large program, its rival CBS responded by launching See It Now with Edward R. Murrow in November.





Hear It Now, which is a former weekly radio adaptation of the I Can Hear It Now spoken-word album series from Columbia, is also the basis for Edward R. Murrow's See It Now (CBS).

The CBS television control room at Studio 41 in Grand Central Terminal houses Edward R. Murrow's innovative and groundbreaking See It Now television program.




Dave Garroway's Garroway at Large (NBC) used moving cameras and unpainted studio walls, whereas Edward R. Murrow's See It Now (CBS) featured a control room with monitors.





Both Dave Garroway's Garroway at Large (NBC) and Edward R. Murrow's See It Now (CBS) rejected traditional box-like sets in favour of the ones being treated as three-dimensional/3D canvases.

Likewise, real technical television production was exposed due to the innovations involving both Dave Garroway's Garroway at Large (NBC) and Edward R. Murrow's See It Now (CBS).


NBC also pioneered a new formula of television: early-morning television, which is being offered via Today (NBC), initially coming from the RCA Exhibition Hall.




Situated in the Rockefeller Centre complex, the RCA Exhibition Hall is based directly across from the iconic and famous headquarters of the Associated Press at 50 Rockefeller Plaza.

For Today (NBC), under Dave Garroway, the RCA Exhibition Hall mixed Chicago's creativity with the industrial newsroom/bullpen (AP) and the technical network news nerve centre (CBS).





The early-1950's US presidential election, the second one being held during the Cold War period, was likewise the first to offer television coverage on a massive and multi-faceted level.

Just before the News Hour, BCTV had not fared well since its 1960 inception.

Instead, television viewers in British Columbia have to watch the early-evening newscasts south of the world's longest unguarded border, especially the CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite.



Under both Ray Peters and Cameron Bell, in the late-1960's, BCTV launched the News Hour, which is Canada's first hour-long evening newscast.



Not long after, in 1975, BCTV also made a unique news studio set design bridging the 2 camps, which turned the News Hour into Canada's top-rated English-language newscast as well.




For BCTV, it had the NBC camp - the print-style newsroom/bullpen being used by Today (NBC) at the RCA Exhibition Hall under Dave Garroway.

One of the avid Today (NBC) viewers was future BCTV (CHAN-TV) executive Ray Peters.





Likewise, BCTV had the CBS camp - Edward R. Murrow's See It Now control room.

Incidentally, Edward R. Murrow's See It Now program serves as the CBS answer to Dave Garroway's eponymous Garroway at Large program on NBC.





Ray Peters, a future BCTV (CHAN-TV) executive, visited New York in the early-1950's era to observe American television production, when Edward R. Murrow's See It Now began.




NBC's print-style newsroom/bullpen camp, used by BCTV, evolved into the traditional print-style CBS newsroom/bullpen, featuring Walter Cronkite, who had his print roots at United Press.

Likewise, the high-tech and cutting-edge CBS control room camp, which BCTV used, evolved into the ultra-modern and cinematic NewsCentre, created for NBC by Fred Harpman.




Upon its June 1, 1980 launch, CNN used its BCTV-inspired hybrid newsroom-control room studio set design, which serves as the DNA for 24-hour television news.

Having adapted BCTV's hybrid newsroom-control room studio set for CNN was Bunky Helfrich.





The 1977 Trinity and the 1981 IBM Personal Computer are the blueprints for personal computers being included in the newsroom/bullpen for television in the modern era, evolving from the UNIVAC I.

Using both the 1977 Trinity and the 1981 IBM PC, they shifted this newsroom/bullpen production from manual and paper-based workflows into fully automated digital hubs.






Chicago, in which Dave Garroway pioneered a casual television style being brought to New York, also housed WCIU-TV, which pioneered financial news on television.

In the West Coast, KWHY-TV pioneered financial news on television, similar to WCIU-TV.



Quotron, a financial device being made in 1960 by John Scantlin and his eponymous company Scantlin Electronics, is the first to directly stream real-time stock market data to an electronic screen.

Scantlin's Quotron system replaced traditional, slow and mechanical ticker tape machines.




NASDAQ is the world's first fully electronic stock market, which evolved from Quotron.




For the Financial News Network (FNN), some of its original personnel were from KWHY-TV, such as Rodney Buscher and Eugene Inger.



Upon its 1981 launch, the Financial News Network (FNN) pioneered the scrolling digital stock market ticker being based across the lower third of the television screen on a national level.

In general, the FNN ticker had the top white band for stocks and the bottom blue band for index.




Mirroring the short-lived ticker being adapted from teletypes in the Today (NBC) bullpen under Dave Garroway, FNN's ticker is television's first continuous on-screen ticker on a national level.

Locally, this on-screen stock market ticker being created for both KWHY-TV and WCIU-TV featured scrolling text from bottom to top (vertical).

FNN's ticker featured scrolling text moving from right to left (horizontal).



Conversely, upon its mid-April 1989 launch, CNBC used a different ticker from FNN.

With the young and upstart CNBC merging with the iconic and famous, yet scandal-ridden FNN in the early-1990's, CNBC adopted/modernized FNN's scrolling 2-band digital stock market ticker.



Just prior to the Financial News Network (FNN), continuous financial and business tickers were being restricted to local TV stations for several hours.

However, FNN's true breakthrough was to make the stock market ticker a 24-hour standard.



In 1989, CNN Headline News introduced its own iteration of the CNBC/FNN stock market ticker; in December 1993, it also introduced the SportsTicker.





Fox News Channel was the first television service to utilize the general modern news ticker during the events being held in mid-September 2001.

Others, like CNN and MSNBC, followed Fox News during the mid-September 2001 events.





Modern 21st-century news studio designs cannot leave behind Dave Garroway's television traits; they instead use digital technology to merge and evolve them into flexible ecosystems.

Some of the innovative Dave Garroway traits that modern 21st-century news studio designs can never leave behind include a newsroom/bullpen, a street-side studio and a news ticker/clock display.





In addition, modern 21st-century televised election studio set designs could not also leave behind these similar Dave Garroway traits to those being used in the television news business.

Likewise, modern 21st-century business/financial news studio set designs cannot also leave the similar Dave Garroway traits behind to those being used in television news.






Just before both Dave Garroway and Edward R. Murrow, television news studio sets were divided into three separate formulas:


  • News anchors sitting at one desk in a studio with a cardboard box feel behind blank walls

  • Journalists working in a newsroom/bullpen being filled with teletype machines and noises

  • Technical staff operating in a dark and windowless control room, featuring monitor banks



However, both Dave Garroway and Edward R. Murrow broke down the cardboard box-like television studio set walls, turning television news studio sets into three-dimensional/3D canvases.



By the mid-1950's period, the Chicago School of Television had started to fade, as television network production had become a centralized duopoly between New York and Los Angeles.





The East Coast (New York) houses American television's corporate/news operations.

Due to its proximity to Wall Street, plus its political corridors, the East Coast (New York) houses live broadcast journalism, morning news and late-night satire involving current events.

Incidentally, New York is American broadcasting's main financial and executive command centre.




As for the West Coast (Los Angeles), it uses the television industry's entertainment, variety and filmed sectors, capitalizing on.Hollywood's infrastructure and cinematic pool.




Still, the DNA of the Chicago School has had an impact on television.

The casual delivery and open-plan studio sets being rooted in television's Chicago School lead to those being used by national newscasts, nationally-televised elections and 24-hour cable news channels.

Plus, the Chicago School DNA is in sports, and most notably, social media, like YouTube and TikTok.
