Order1965-03-05, ABC, 27 min.
In 1933, conflict exploded between labor and management as unions sought the right to bargain collectively under a vague section of President Roosevelt's National Industrial Recovery Act. Tonight's program, written by Quentin Reynolds, reviews the violent labor-management relations of the thirties. The times are bitter for working man and employer alike. In Georgia, prison camps are set up for strikers, San Francisco and Minneapolis are virtually paralyzed by strikes; soldiers are sent to restore order in the coal fields of West Virginia; FDR is called " a traitor to his class" and the labor movement splits into two camps: AFL and CIO. Early in 1935, Senator Robert Wagner, Democrat from New York, introduces the National Labor Relations Act, designed to enforce the rights of labor. A manufacturers association claims the NLRA "will out-Stalin Stalin," while the Dailey Worker asserts "it will be a weapon to destroy the power of the workers." Among those interviewed: Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt, Mayor Robert F. Wagner of New York City and labor leader James Carey. Narrated by Arthur Kennedy. Charlton Heston reads from FDR's writings.

October 1, 1962-May 22, 1992. Johnny Carson, host of NBC's network late-night "Tonight Show" reigned for 30 unprecedented years...five times the combined tenure of Steve Allen, and Jack Paar. Carson was impervious to competition, including efforts to dethrone him by Les Crane, Joey Bishop, Merv Griffin, Dick Cavett, Jack Paar, Pat Sajak, Joan Rivers, and Arsenio Hall. Sadly, very few complete "Tonight Show" broadcasts survive during Johnny Carson's first ten years of broadcasting. Around 1965, through the early 1970's, oldest tapes were first erased systematically by orders from myopic NBC executives, to be recycled for purposes of saving money. Ironically, in many cases, these older master tapes were too brittle, and portended probable drop-outs for re-use after being erased. Subsequently blank after being erased, these older questionable master 2" Quad tapes were either sparingly used or never used again for recording new programming and eventually were discarded. Saving thousands of dollars at the time (wiping master tapes for potential re-use) resulted in losing millions of dollars by NBC in today's marketplace, and more importantly wiping thousands of historic TONIGHT SHOW broadcasts, which contain precious personal anecdotes from political, show business, and sports icons of the past. Johnny's guest is singer/comedian Kay Ballard. Johnny and Ed McMahon discuss the news of the day. Rerun on January 22nd, 1966.
