For a long time since the advent of tape "Today" in the Central time zone
was the second hour live, then the first hour on tape. I believe the
change was made because "Good Morning America" started being on tape for
both hours in Central and this was when "GMA" was at the height of the
David Hartman/Joan Lunden era when it was kicking "Today"'s butt in the
ratings.
The live hour/taped hour airing of "Today" in the CT was also the genesis of
Chevy Chase announcing that Gen Franco was still dead on Weekend Update.
