Not Just News was a syndicated Saturday morning news series for children that ran from 1993 to 1995. The show covered topics of interest to children, and also covered several educational topics. The only footage of the show surfacing on the internet is an episode of the show about popular TV stars. However, several Google Groups threads discuss an episode on animation starring Tom Ruegger and his son Nathan Ruegger, who worked on Tiny Toon Adventures and Animaniacs. In one part of the episode, Nathan Ruegger was asked about his favorite Animaniacs episode, which was "Potty Emergency". This was followed by a response that Fox was no longer allowed to show the episode. At one point during this interview, Nathan fell asleep.[1] Other segments in the episode included ones on Aladdin and Batman: The Animated Series, one where a reporter asks Tom Ruegger if he's too old to be working on cartoons and another about how even kids can tell the difference between good and bad animated shows.[2]
