KUP'S SHOW - 1962 - 1975 (Syndicated) 1975 - 1986 (PBS)
Chicago newspaper columnist Irv Kupcinet was first seen on local Chicago television and like David Susskind in New York (Open End), he hosted a talk show in 1958 that was open-ended. The program was trimmed to an hour when it went into national syndication in 1962. In 1975 the show was picked up by PBS and lasted for an additional 11 years.
Host: Irv Kupcinet.
Irv Kupcinet interviews Dr. F.J. Hacker advisor to the Munich German Police Chief Dr. Manfred Schreiber, at the time of the 1972 Olympic mass murder of eleven Jews on the Olympic team, in a 23 hour drama occurring on September 5th, eleven days before.
Second guest is Daniel Ellsberg, an American political activist and U.S. military analyst, who while employed by the RAND CORP., he precipitated an national political controversy
in 1971 when he released the PENTAGON PAPERS, a top-secret Pentagon study of U.S. government decision-making in relation to the Viet Nam war to the New York Times.
Ellsberg poses the question to Irv Kupcinet, "Does the President of the United States have an unlimited power and the right to lie to the American public?" Ellsberg states that at present loyalty to the American public should include revelation of such lies perpetuated by our President in relationship to the Viet Nam war. "Under President Nixon our country is on the verge of becoming a monarchy."
Third guest is Clifford Irving who completed the book, "The Autobiography of Howard Hughes.," which turned out to be a hoax.
The book, about to be published in 1972 by McGraw-Hill, was never published after Howard Hughes denounced Irving and threatened to sue the publisher. Irving and his collaborators then confessed to the book as being a hoax. Clifford Irving was sentenced to 2 & 1/2 years in jail of which he served 17 months.
This interview was conducted just before he began serving his time in prison. Among many anecdotes revealed was his acknowledgement of failing a lie detector test just before appearing with Mike Wallace for an interview contentious with lies.
Ecology...a lighthearted approach to a serious subject. Host Raymond Burr guides the way through a series of spoofs on pollution, trash, and endangered species. Members of The Boy Scouts Of America are on hand for an anti-litter plug. Cameos by Carol Burnett, Carroll O'Connor, Red Foxx, and Flip Wilson.
Cast...Walker: Edward Andrews, Mrs. Higginbotham: Yvonne Wilder. Barney Edwards: John Fink.

A portrait of the Secretary of State. The hour, opens with Dr. Kissinger recalling his boyhood in Germany (he was nine when the Nazis came to power) service with US Army Intelligence, and academic career at Hadvard.
The secretary is also filmed during a "typical working day" in Washington. From 7AM to 11PM, the hours are filled with appointments and conferences, including meetings with President Nixon, Secretary of Defense James Schlesinger and State Department aides.
The Kissinger style however, is epitomized by scenes of his "shuttle diplomacy," meetings with Soviet and Chinese leaders in Moscow and Peking, and the recent month-long peace mission in the Middle East, culminating in an Israeli-Syrian accord to separate their armies on the Golan Heights.
Host: Ted Koppel.
