    I well remember Bill Stern more for his short human interest stories late Friday nights on radio.
    It was 1949 when he first described Madison Square Garden as speaking of the events that took place there.
    Like the late Chet Huntley, he made cameo appearances in movies.
    Bill had the unique ability to get audiences excited over watching paint dry.
    To my surprise, TV caught on like a pandemic with two stations within a hundred miles in my hometown and estimates of 25 million home tv sets by 1954.
    Thanks for sharing.
    A contemporary of yours

    The Hitler segment was excessive, one of my rare criticisms of this channel whose work is otherwise incredibly riveting and beautiful.

    Some big errors. Goebbels shot himself in April 1945 and not die of disease in July, Patton died in a car crash and Don Douglas could not have starred in a 1952 film.

      There is another story about the deaths of Joseph and Magda Goebbels: death by biting cyanide capsules (same as Himmler).

    There are some here who should have not even gotten any mention because of what they did and stood for. The most ironic thing is that you put one individual with an innocent young girl who was murdered by this evil individual because of who she was.
