Bruce Slutsky was born in New York City in 1949. I retired six years ago after working as a Science/Engineering Librarian at the New Jersey Institute of Technology in Newark for 25 years. I was married to Karen until she passed away in February 2021. I have a son Lee who is now 35 years old. I am very much interested in the popular music of the 1960s, especially Bob Dylan and the Beatles. I am interested in rock and roll radio. I am an enthusiastic fan of the New York Mets.

Shame on WCBS-TV for interviewing the Son of Sam
It seems that the morons running WCBS-TV news will do anything for the almighty rating point during sweeps month. Who in their right mind would want to watch an interview of the Son of Sam. I am old enough to remember the summer of 1977 when he terrorized the city. He does not deserve any recognition from the media. Thankfully the police apprehended him before he could kill anyone else. I am not in the TV new business, but my message for the WCBS-TV news management is Shame on You!!
I think you answered your own question. Big ratings = big viewership audience. Are people right for watching it, I won't comment on that but I will say this: people are more interested in the deconstruction of a hero than the constructing of one. So it doesn't suprise me that CBS-2 interviewed them, and it wouldn't suprise me if millions of people tuned in as a result.
