People on the tweetybox are wondering about the other tease on the cover, 
"NHL Announcers: Muzzled at the Mike?"

Now, from experience watching/listening to games back then, they didn't get 
a whale of a lot of information (see what I did there?) back then from the 
teams, which in nearly every case had to approve their hiring by the TV 
entities. It's not like today where with all the (legal) betting on the 
games, all information is important.     B

Jim Ellwanger, to moi, July 5th:

> As someone noted in the Twitter replies, this is the Canadian version of 
> TV Guide (which had been spun off as a separate publication from the 
> American magazine in 1977). Based on a quick search, Letterman didn't make 
> it to the cover of American TV Guide until 1992, when he shared it with 
> Dana Carvey for a cover story speculating on the future of late-night TV.
