You know what the problem
with you bums is ?
2:01:02
You never leave a guy alone
unless you're leaving him alone.
2:01:05
- Who do you blame, Charlie ?
- Professor, one more shot.
2:01:07
Did you feel the committee
treated you fairly ?
2:01:10
How'd the pressure up there
compare to Twenty-One ?
2:01:12
So you freely admit that
you helped rig these shows ?
2:01:16
- [ Enright ] What else could we do ?
- Congratulations.
2:01:19
- For what ?
- Van Doren.
2:01:21
l thought we were gonna
get television.
2:01:25
The truth is...
television is gonna get us.
2:01:31
[ Congressman ] And you obviously
don't think you did anything wrong.
2:01:34
[ Enright ] Yes, we did one thing
wrong. We were too successful.
2:01:38
[ Congressman ] You were
too successful.
2:01:40
[ Enright ] Those advertising
dollars came from somewhere.
2:01:44
Why do you think the newspapers
and magazines are making
such a big thing about this ?
2:01:47
[ Chairman ] Mr. Enright,
2:01:50
you make it sound like
you are the victim here.
2:01:52
[ Enright ] The sponsor makes out,
the network makes out,
2:01:55
the contestants see money they
would never see in a lifetime
and the public is entertained.
2:02:00
So who gets hurt ?
2:02:09
[ Chairman ] Mr. Freedman,
2:02:11
you freely admit that
you helped rig these shows ?
2:02:16
- [ Freedman ] Yes, sir.
- Yes, sir ? That's it ?
2:02:20
[ Freedman ] Well, sir, l don't
know what else to say.
2:02:23
Give the public what they want.
[ Chuckles ] lt's like your business.
2:02:27
[ Chairman ] Do you see a need
for government regulation in this area ?
2:02:32
You know, it's not like the quiz shows
are a public utility, sir.
2:02:35
lt's entertainment.
2:02:38
We're not exactly
hardened criminals here.
2:02:40
[ Chuckles ] We're, we're
in show business.
