short version, lk did not want to do anything live, radio or tv, and wanted the first part without any video. 10 producer, with apparently some backing from ch 6 producer on phone, said that was unfair to tv guys, which pissed off all the print and radio folks. Came down to 10 producer saying no, so LK just came in and did his 30 seconds and left, much to the disgust of most in room, both at LK and ch 10.
Mark Packer, now of ch 8, but formerly of ch 10, calling LK a snake "like Kevin O'Neill" was the highlight for me.
