November 17th, 1993. Geraldo Rivera on his namesake talk show brings us this segment on the former president’s son, John Fitzgerald Kennedy Junior.
“We have a video piece prepared to show you what the years of Camelot were like for little John…”
This segment begins with modern footage of Mr. Kennedy, described as a man ‘no woman in America would kick out of her bedroom..’. We hear details of his life, how it was shaped by his father’s assassination, and later in the segment historical footage of young John during his father’s tenure as president.
In studio are a number of authors and columnists who have covered the Kennedy family including Wendy Leigh author of ‘Prince Charming the John F Kennedy Jr Story’, John Davis author of ‘The Kennedys, Dynasty and Disaster’, Claudia Cohen an entertainment reporter, Rudy Maxa of Spy Magazine, and Jeannie Williams of USA today.
John F Kennedy Jr. passed away in 1999, as the result of a tragic plane crash.
This day, Geraldo’s television history.
