DESCRIPTION: (from Investigation Discovery's press release, November 2016) Pulling from the vault of one of the most legendary journalists of all time, BARBARA WALTERS PRESENTS returns for a second season, revealing exclusive interviews from scandals that captivated the nation. ID and ABC's Lincoln Square Productions marry gripping interviews from the past and present as Walters leads viewers through three explosive stories: Michael Jackson, Leona Helmsley and Gary Hart. Just as fascinating as the stories themselves, are those that tell them. In all-new interviews, Walters speaks with Tito Jackson, Michael Jackson's older brother and Jackson 5 bandmate, as well as TJ Jackson, Michael's nephew and guardian of his children ; Rudy Giuliani, the prosecutor for Leona Helmsley's "tax cheating;" and Donna Rice, the woman who's alleged relationship with Gary Hart sparked his political downfall. They - and others - share their thoughts in BARBARA WALTERS PRESENTS premiering on Tuesday, December 6 at 9/8c on Investigation Discovery (ID). Through careful analysis of the evolving landscape and growing influence of media coverage, BARBARA WALTERS PRESENTS draws conclusions as to why these three fell under public conviction in the height of their careers. Not common in true-crime, Walters examines those who were brought to trial by the press, blurring the line between what is rumor and what is fact. With an unparalleled talent to get to the heart of every story, each hour-long episode relies on Walters' new and archived interviews as she unravels the humans within them. |
