I know this is a long shot and seems obvious, but has she checked on YouTube?
Here's an affiliate NBC newscast for Oct 13 2002

Try contacting a local TV station affiliate and see if they can help, is the student familiar with a particular location? I would think if you go local rather than national he/she'd have better luck.
Choose a city, google the local TV stations and find contacts on the station's website. May also have better luck with naming the news items s/he is actually looking for...if it's a particular event, you may be able to connect through their national website.
Best of luck

Subject: [lis-e-resources] US TV news recordings, 2001-2002
Hi All,
We've had an enquiry from one of our postgrads, and I'm at a loss. So I'd like to consult the e-resources librarian hive mind.
Our student would like to see some recordings of various US stations, specifically:
· Up to four hours of footage from FOX's main rolling news network for October 12-16, 2002
· Up to four hours of footage from FOX for December 22-26, 2001
· Up to four hours of footage from MSNBC/NBC on October 13 2002 and December 25 2001
· CNN footage from December 22 and 23, 2001
I think we could get at some transcripts via our Nexis subscription; transcripts would do at a push, but she'd rather see the actual footage. I'm stumped; does anybody know where we could get acecss to such a thing?
Many thanks,
Tom
