1:41:19
- l'm sorry, Mr. Van Doren.
- ls he in ?
1:41:22
- He's gone, Mr. Van Doren.
- He's gone to Washington ?
1:41:25
Mr. Freedman's gone
to Mexico.
1:41:33
l still don't understand how
you can hold a quiz show hearing
without Van Doren.
1:41:37
Van Doren had no contact
with NBC or Geritol.
1:41:40
Don't you understand, they deal
with Enright. Enright's the key here.
1:41:43
The key to what ? The jury
hears the public. The public
doesn't know Dan Enright.
1:41:47
The purpose is not to reform
the souls of the contestants.
The purpose is to reform TV.
1:41:51
- lt's like the Barenblatt
and the Sweezey cases.
- You don't wanna call him.
1:41:53
Fine, Dick. Just don't patronize me
with your legal bullshit.
1:41:56
- She's got a point, Dick.
- Bob, maybe it's time
for you to go home.
1:41:59
How'd you like Dick's steak
done, Bob ? Medium ?
1:42:02
- There's absolutely no need to
drag the man into the spotlight.
- You dragged Herb Stempel in.
1:42:05
The man has to be
dragged from the spotlight
with his teethmarks still on it.
1:42:09
Yeah, well, nobody forced
Charles Van Doren to go in front
of 50 million people either.
1:42:12
This is not McCarthyism. We are not
here to expose for the sake of exposing.
1:42:15
- This is not the point !
- That is the point !
That is not your point !
1:42:18
You are ten times the man
Charles Van Doren is.
1:42:22
Ten times the brain
and ten times the human being.
1:42:25
Meanwhile, you're bending
over backwards for him.
1:42:28
You are like the Uncle Tom
of the Jews.
1:42:31
l'm glad it's so easy for you
to destroy a man's life.
l'll have to keep that in mind.
1:42:36
Bob, sit down.
1:42:40
The quiz show hearings without Van Doren
is like doing Hamlet without Hamlet.
1:42:48
The Chairman's instructions
are for me to get you up there
as promptly as possible.
1:42:52
The questions are to take
no longer than 15 minutes.
1:42:54
You're to receive
the questions in advance,
1:42:57
and l'm to thank you for the courtesy
of attending this hearing.
