October 22nd, 1989. Geraldo Rivera on his namesake talk show brings us to ‘Debbie Duz Donuts’, a coffee and donuts shop where the staff is nude waist up.
“Many people seem to like the idea, some are just curious. Others are afraid it will bring in prostitution and more crime to their area.”
Topless restaurants might be nothing new but this segment checks their proliferation into more traditional establishments. R-rated coffee shops are visited across the country as we talk to staff and patrons. While the protesters are not interviewed in this segment their views are mentioned.
This day, Geraldo’s television history.
