2:57 is the Lorimar Presents logo. The DVD and Blu-Ray releases doesn’t have that, because it was part of the Warner Archive series. It was first released on VHS and Betamax in 1978 by Allied Artists Video. 0:13 is the SFM “Holiday Network” opening with the music from “Monday Night Football”. Same as with the bumper at 3:06 where it sounded a lot like “Monday Night Football”.
So in addition to SFM using "Heavy Action"; the first clip after the preemption bumper was the ABC closed captioning bumper that was borrowed by WNEW. I wonder if after the closed captioning bumper anyone might have mistakenly assumed that the channel got flipped to WABC for a split second.
