- CBS'S Loss: NBC'S Lack
- </hdr>
- <body>
- <p> A month ago, CBS News wunderkind Andrew Lack had a long-term
- contract with the most successful network in broadcast TV.
- Hence the surprise of last week's announcement by basement
- broadcaster NBC that Lack will head its news division, following
- such debacles as NBC's staged explosions during a report on
- allegedly fire-prone GM trucks. Though Lack lacks credits as a
- network-news czar, he boasts a host of awards for TV news
- programs he has produced, as well as experience working with the
- cream of video journalism, including NBC anchor Tom Brokaw.
