SUZANNE CHESSLER Special to The Jewish News A s President Clinton prepares . to answer grand jury ques- tions about his relationship with Monica Lewinsky, a new CBS Cable series could provide some particulars. "Scandal!" — 50 half- hour programs exploring what happens to disgraced public figures — premieres 10:30 p.m. Monday, Aug. 17,-and has one segment devoted to "Bill's Girl- friends." Richard Schlesinger, a contributing correspondent for the "CBS News With Dan Rather," is the anchor for the CBS on People cable show that is broadcast locally to TCI digital sub- scribers on Channel 273. It will air 10:30 p.m. Mondays-Fridays for 10 weeks. - "I hate to say it, but I think scandals are becoming a form of entertainment," said Tom Seligson, "Scandal!" executive producer who came up. with the idea for the series. "You can't turn on the television or pick up a paper without seeing [some form of scandal] as the primary news, whether it's our president or a star ath- lete [tried] for killing his wife and her friend. "While it's entertainment in the sense that people are fascinated by other people's lives, we're also trying to inform about some of the scandals that a lot of people may be unaware of." Jewish celebrities who are the *focus of specific shows include Sol Wachtler, a New York judge who became a stalker, and Mary Alpert, the sportscaster who also got caught up in a sex controversy. Other shows focus on Sen. Ted Kennedy, who was embroiled in ques- tionable circumstances surrounding the death of an employee, and former auto executive John DeLorean, who had to face drug dealing charges. On a wider scale, additional shows cover California fertility doctors switch- ing and misrepresenting embryos, CIA. .operatives experimenting with 'LSD through unsuspecting people and news- paper reporters filing fictitious articles. "Rather than just reportirig on Bill Clinton's scandals, we look at why he has gotten himself into so many it messes," Seligson said. "Even when you'd think he'd be on his best behav- ior, he goes out and risks even more humiliation. "One of the interviewees is a doctor who explained the whole thing by virtue of [the president] having come from an alcoholic background and never feeling that he was ever worthy. No matter how much he accomplishes,* he had to risk losing it all by doing something chancy." Newsman -Richard Schlesinger will -anchor CBS Eye on People's "Scan- dal!" The series also includes a program that comes closer to Michigan's Jewish community as it explores insider trad- ing scandals on Wall Street. The seg- ment reviews the predicament of for- mer Detroiter Ivan Boesky and tells what he's doing today. "There have been Jewish people on both sides of these stories," said Seligson, referring to the different nature of problems faced individually mi by Woody Allen and collectively by Nazi hunters. "I think most people are aware of the scandal that Woody Allen found himself in [with Mia Farrow's adopted daughter], and I think it damaged his public following.
