A fun promo film for WXYZ in Detroit, featuring many of their on air talent enjoying a picnic while the narrator extolls all the wonderful programming the station has. From news, sports and all the hits of the day (we hear some! Good luck posting this film on Youtube) This station has it all! The film does it's job very well.
