November 27, 1960-November 8, 1981. Newsmakers were interviewed by journalists on this public affairs program, ABC's counterpart of CBS's "Face The Nation" and NBC's "Meet The Press." In its earliest weeks, the series was entitled "ABC Press Conference." Topic: "Branding Vietnam a Bad War." Moderator: Howard K. Smith with guest Col. David Hackworth. On June 27, 1971, the ABC network aired an edition of its Issues and Answers news program. Viewers listened with shock and concern as one of the most highly decorated soldiers of the post-World War II era, Col. David Hackworth, in full dress uniform, told them of a long line of mistakes, failures and lies associated with the Vietnam War. He summed it up this way. “I have seen the American nation spend so much of its wonderful, great young men in this country. I have seen our national wealth being drained away. I see the nation being split apart and almost split asunder because of this war, and I am wondering to what end to is all going to lead to.” The interview had been filmed in South Vietnam two months earlier. Before the interview took place, Col. Hackworth, or “Hack” as he liked to be called, was finishing up his third and final tour in Vietnam and was almost certain to be promoted to brigadier general. After the interview aired, Hack’s illustrious, decades-long military career in the army was brought to an end. NOTE: This controversial broadcast may have been destroyed by the Network or the Army. It is not extant on the internet, You Tube or in the archives of The Library of Congress, UCLA Film & TV Archive, Paley Center for Media or Vanderbilt University. It is written about in Col. David Hackworth's book, "About Face."1971-09-22, CBS, 28 min.

Bob Grant was a controversial right-wing talk radio show host, based in the New York City area. Grant is considered a pioneer in the talk radio format and an early adopter of the "combat talk" show style. He began in New York City radio on WMCA in 1970 where he remained until 1977. From there he moved to WOR radio, beginning there on May 30th, 1977. In 1979, he was fired from WOR for some controversial remarks he made on the air and moved back to WMCA taking the time slot of another conservative talk-show host Barry Farber. In November, 1984, Grant was hired by WABC radio which two years earlier had changed from a rock and roll station to an all-talk format. Grant remained with WABC until April 17th, 1996 when he was again fired by the station for remarks made about then commerce secretary Ron Brown who was involved in a plane crash on April 3rd. When Brown was found dead, the station fired him for his remarks against Brown. Grant then returned to WOR for ten years until 2006. Following that Grant returned to WABC until November, 2008 when his show was pulled. He did some internet broadcasting and then returned for a final time to WABC in 2009. He permanently retired on July 28th, 2013, due to failing health. His radio motto was "Let's Be Heard" which served as the title of his book. Guest: Howard K Smith.1974-12-30, ABC, 16 min.
