Now that I think about it, remebering the NBC tour in New York, isnt NBC Today like 50 years old? It first aired on January 14, 1952

Well how could tv-am be the first?


NBC is not a breakfast televison station, it a nationaly broadcaster for all times of the day.

plus NBC started back on the 40's

Today is a programme on the NBC Network in the USA, TV-am was a Breakfast Television Channel (on the ITV Network) and was the first in Europe, BBC Breakfast Time was one of the first Breakfast programmes in Europe.

Note Programmes and Channel/Station.

Which is why the claim is a bit tenuous in the first place, it was the First Breakfast TV Station..... but it was also the penultimate!
