1973, Geraldo Rivera, after working for 3 years as a TV news man, introduces us to possibly the first show he hosted, Good Night America. We send a thank you out to Ringo Starr and meet Geraldo’s parents before moving onto what the show will be about. “A second generation TV news magazine” about life in America, the good, the bad, the ugly. It is hoped that this format allows Good Night America to take a closer look at some of the serious issues in our country, and think of ways to change them for the better. The show also takes a look at lifestyles, the good life, here in America.
This news format is sorely missed in today’s soundbite culture, where perspective is sometimes lacking.
