Description
A television news crew, including a camera operator, sound technician, and interviewer with a microphone, is recording an interview on a sidewalk in front of a one-story home with tan siding. Three individuals are being interviewed, one of whom wears a T-shirt that reads "LOVE CANAL – Another Product from Hooker Chemical." A green pickup truck is parked in the driveway, and another person is partially visible seated in the doorway of the house. A microphone bag and audio equipment are placed on the ground beside the kneeling technician. The scene takes place during daylight.
