Back story on title line: Drew Carney is the local NBC affiliate's roving reporter who does a daily out-and-about segment for the morning sunrise news show. Carney was talking to some kid in the airport several weeks ago, and the kid was mightily unimpressed with Carney, but he noted the NBC logo, and said he liked Lester Holt. Not one to miss a trick, NBC flew the kid and his family out to 30 Rock in New York, let him meet Lester Holt, and tour the studio. The story was so sweet it made your teeth hurt.
