This is CNN's WorldNews - what you need to know, what you want to know. With Susan Rook and Johnathan Mann at CNN Center in Atlanta.
There is a better-quality copy of this animation on this channel, but this one is when Johnathan Mann anchored with Susan Rook. Later in 1992, Mann left the 10PM ET slot on CNN WorldNews to the 11PM ET slot on CNN International, where he anchored CNN International World News in the same time slot that CNN carried Sports Tonight. Mann was replaced on CNN World News by Patrick Greenlaw.

Over the course of one week in July, 21 pieces of a comet named Shoemaker-Levy 9 rained down on Jupiter. Astronomers predicted it would happen, and were ready for it.
The best pictures came from the Hubble Space Telescope, and left observers breathless.
When the first piece of the comet, Fragment A, observers saw a dark formation thousands of kilometers wide. When the largest fragment, G, hit three days later,
it unleashed a force equal to 500,000,000 Hiroshima-type bombs.
What does this mean for us? Some say Earth could become a bullseye for a comet or an asteroid.
Carl Sagan, Cornell Univ. Astronomer: Chicken Little was mistaken, but, as Shoemaker-Levy 9 hitting Jupiter reminds us, there really are these objects in the sky, and they really do hit worlds.
Shoemaker-Levy 9 leaves behind a legacy: A mountain of data that will keep scientists busy for years.

Chris Farley famously lampooned this event on Saturday Night Live. The event took place January 2nd, 1994, at the Mayoral Inauguration of Rudy Giuliani.
U.S. District Judge Michael Mukasey: Please raise your right hand.
At, first it seemed a heartwarming example of father-son bonding. 7-year-old Andrew taking the oath as New York City mayor along with his father, Rudolph Guiliani.
Judge: ...that I will support the Constitution of the United States...
Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, New York: ...that I will support...
But, when Mayor Giuliani went to the podium, so did Andrew.
Giuliani: Im gonna have a co-addressee I guess: Andrew.
And soon, he was upstaging his fathers no-nonsense message.
Giuliani: ...of the centrality of God to our city... ...and New York City will again be the capital of the world.
Andrew: It should be so, and it will be so.
Giuliani: All of you have the same ingenuity, the same sensitivity, the same talent, the same courage that our ancestors had ... a stronger and a healthier City. It should be so and it will be so. Thank you.

“I dont think Kurt Cobain ever knew how to deal with fame.”
On a stormy April 5th, 1994 morning in Seattle, an electrician working at the million-dollar home of troubled grunge rock sensation Kurt Cobain makes an alarming discovery.
Vinette Tichi, Seattle Police: “When he looked inside he saw a man lying on the floor. It was obvious this man is dead from a shotgun wound to the head.”
Its Cobain, the lead singer of Nirvana, whose debut album Nevermind vaulted the band instant fame.
Michael Azerrad, Friend: “A month before that album came out they were practically nobody. A month after it came out, they were spokesmen for their generation.”
Cobains mother said hed been missing for six days, and, referring to the premature deaths of Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin, and Jimi Hendrix, she adds: “Now hes gone and joined that stupid Club.”
“Im so ugly, but thats okay, cos so are you...”
