Nine Inch Nails on Hard Copy

My brother points me to this clip from Hard Copy, where NIN and Trent Reznor are involved in "The Case of the Mysterious Video Tape". I'm guessing it's from around 1992 since we hear "Suck" from Broken around 3:14 into the piece.

Jeff poses the question - "Are happenings like this still possible?" - I'd say if this type of event happened today it certainly wouldn't warrant 10 minutes on a major tv program, maybe five seconds of most people skimming over a link.

I love these long lost artist mythology-building pieces. Neither this show nor NIN were on my radar at the time, but now it's fascinating to look back and see how the mainstream media at the time handled one of my now-favourite artists.
