Gee, and Do you suppose Ben Stein didn’t personally pay out on “Win Ben Stein’s Money?” And when Monte Hall offered $100 to someone in a zany costume that he didn’t really offer his own money? TV is business. There are tax and legal reasons why it is the way it is. Sheeeesh
Of course. It’s an enterprise. Anyone in the media knows how this works. This is total con job on the part of this dipshit reporter. They should be fired for such crap.
And what about Oprah giving away cars? You think that came out of her pocket?
I’m sure, though, that when Oprah told her audience “You get one, and you get one, and you get a neeeew caaaarrr!!!!” she paid for it out of her own pocket, right? I mean Pontiac didn’t foot the bill, did it?
This is serious stuff. It could bankrupt Wink Martindale and Bob Barker.
