bigtime said:I think Fred Heckman was the newsperson that Tony Kiritis talked to though.
Fred was Tony's newsman of choice. During Tony's obsenity laced tirade broadcast on all of the Indy TV news stations, as well as WIBC AND the Indiana Pacers network, he called Fred the "best G** d****** newsman in Indianapolis." Kiritsis let his hostage, mortgage broker Richard Hall, free after the broadcast. He was arrested after shooting the shotgun he had wired to Hall's neck out a window to prove the gun was indeed loaded.
I had almost forgotten about Contact and Harding. The show was pretty entertaining.
