No Fireworks on 4th, Says NBC's APT.

Regular readers of this blog will note a theme of astonishment when it comes to NBC announcing annual events.  After nearly 20 years of following NBC on a daily basis, I have my reasons.  Here's an example:

Has Macy's cancelled their sponsorship of NYC fireworks on the Fourth of July?

Apparently not.  https://cititour.com/NYC_Events/2017-Macys-4th-of-July-Fireworks/9935

And then there is this paragraph:

Independence Day spectators from coast-to-coast can catch all the action in the sky by tuning to NBC’s two-hour national broadcast of “Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks Spectacular” beginning at 8 p.m. ET (check local listings). In addition to the pyrotechnic splendor, the 4th of July’s most popular entertainment special will feature performances from the nation’s hottest musical acts.  Stay tuned for more exciting details about this year's display.

But as I examine the password protected full schedule site of APT,  on the Fourth of July, there are other programs listed.  I never reveal what's on THAT site..  comments made here are based as if all I had access to was the APT2GO website that has always been open to the public.
