I called them, their clips start from 2005 on. They do not provide licensing deals. You have to go to the original station for that. They sell you a single clip or more if needed. Getting clips older than 5 years old can be a bit costly, but worth it if you need it. Their are good, lower priced options as well. More impressively, check out the selection.

From their website:
"News Exposure has made a significant investment in its digital clips archive of high definition (HD) and standard definition (SD) recordings dating back to 1984. If it aired, it's probably in our news clips archive. The depth of our archive has allowed countless clients to access even “lost” or Web-expired content that you can't retrieve through any other digital clipping service. Make us your premier destination for archived digital clips. The most popular formats are MPEG4, H.264, H.265, QuickTime (.MOV), WMV and MPEG2. If the format exists, we can provide it."
