1:45:03
l can't wait to get you
out there again.
1:45:06
- Stuck in that sand trap for an hour.
- No more for me.
1:45:08
Would you state your name
and profession ?
1:45:11
My name is Robert Kintner.
l'm the president of the
National Broadcasting Company.
1:45:16
[ Man ] My name is Martin Rittenhome.
l run Pharmaceuticals lncorporated.
1:45:19
l take that responsibility
very seriously, Congressman.
1:45:22
We immediately commenced
our own internal investigation.
1:45:25
To ferret out this corruption
wherever it may exist.
1:45:28
Nobody brought the article
in Time Magazine to your attention ?
1:45:31
l was in Europe.
l didn't see it.
1:45:33
You didn't see it.
You were travelling.
1:45:35
l didn't see it.
l was travelling at the time.
1:45:37
You sure you never asked
about particular contestants
or about the ratings, nothing ?
1:45:41
- That was their department.
- l relied on the excellent
reputation of Dan Enright.
1:45:45
Dan Enright was more in the nature
of an independent contractor.
1:45:47
Do you remember what you thought
when you found out ?
1:45:50
l was as shocked as you are. l
mean, this was a terrible thing
to do to the American people.
1:45:53
l never, never imagined...
1:45:55
they could perpetrate this fraud
on the American public.
1:45:59
l'd like to say one other thing. l
think all that money should be returned.
1:46:03
Mr. Goodwin,
any further questions ?
1:46:08
No, sir, thank you.
No further questions.
1:46:15
[ Chairman ] On behalf of
the subcommittee, l wish to
thank you for your appearance...
1:46:19
and your testimony here.
1:46:31
Van Doren's
made a statement.
1:46:33
l look like the mark in a shell game
here, and you look like the shill.
1:46:37
- Sir, if you--
- Shut up !
1:46:39
- When is Van Doren coming here ?
l don't see him on the schedule.
- He's not on the schedule.
1:46:43
Wait a minute. We discussed this.
The contestants are not the villains.
1:46:45
We were gonna only bring in the ones
who would come in voluntarily.
1:46:48
All l know is in the last hour,
l've gotten over 200 telegrams
from people askin' me...
1:46:52
why l won't let poor
Charles Van Doren defend himself.
1:46:55
l've got every woman in Arkadelphia
squealin' like a pig under a gate.
1:46:58
- Let me tell you somethin'.
These women vote.
- l cannot believe this.
