A lot of you are probably too young to remember Donahue, but he was there every single day on TV. Sometimes his topics were trivial, sometimes they were vital, but he always tried to push a progressive angle.

    I’m not sure if I’m misremembering this but I feel like he was relatively reasonable for the majority of his career until the likes of Springer and came along. My immediate reaction upon seeing this was that he was a huge dick. But I don’t recall if he was always that way or if it was more of an act in the later years of his show.

      No, he was definitely a decent guy, at least when he had his show. I didn’t really pay much attention to him after it was canceled. But I pasted a bunch of info in a reply to someone else if you want to check it out.
