"THE ONE & ONLY HENRY TENENBAUM. 5:30, 6 & 11 p.m. You never know what to expect from Henry."
These ads establish how WTOP-TV marketed Henry to viewers — as an unpredictable, entertaining feature reporter. The 'One & Only' branding and three-newscast schedule (5:30, 6, and 11 PM) indicate he was a significant on-air personality for the station, not merely a general assignment reporter.
