VERY interesting, in depth and personal look on the many interviews he gave on this tour.

Discussed the Keating scandal and how wrong he was to be in a room with federal regulators and 5 senators, because of the horrible impression that was created. He fully admits repeatedly how wrong he was to do that, that he threw him out of his office one time, and sort of intimates that in effect he was used by Keating.

STILL ON .. WORTH WATCHING ... CSPAN-2.

If that’s what he said, he’s totally off track. He mentioned
Fenway, so I don’t know how he screwed that up.
