> 1) how did [Rose] get to be so rich? Does PBS really pay that much? His Nightwatch days at CBS were probably not rich-making, but likely paid enough that with good investment advice from friends in the financial industry, he could do well. Then, owning his PBS show and going back to CBS in prominent positions would be lucrative before investing.

Of course, there's not exactly stiff competition for that title, especially on a daily basis. As time passed, he fell into the sorts of ruts that everyone who's on for a long time does, but for complicated news, he was still the most likely person to have three guests who knew what was going on and ask the sorts of questions that would help to explain the issue. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TVorNotTV" group.
