Haze in shooting distant city buildings

I have noticed that television stations produce beautiful shots of city views. Specifically, NBC shots from the top of Rockefeller Center in New York City are crystal clear without the slightest trace of haze. This is true in live shots as well as in archived photos. Such clarity in the atmosphere is all but nonexistent in reality. So they must have a way of removing the haze. I have never been able to do the same.
Can anyone suggest a way of removing such haze?

Re: Haze in shooting distant city buildings

The best success I've had in the past is to treat the haze as a contrast problem. If I were doing it now, after having learned a little more about Photoshop, is to do that, and also apply some Selective Color tweaking.

The theory is that haze acts to cause a reduction in contrast, and that's the way I approached it previously.
