The sensationalistic and self-referential talk show host describes his four marriages, his compulsive womanizing, his "relationships" with famous stars, his traumatic firing from ABC, and his years of "journalism." Reprint.
Gerald Michael Rivera, known by his television name of Geraldo Rivera or simply Geraldo, is an American Emmy and Peabody Award-winning television journalist, attorney, and former talk show host. Rivera is a Fox News Senior Correspondent and is a rotating co-host on the FOX News Channel's hit program The Five and provides regular reports and commentary on FNC's Fox and Friends, Hannity, and Tucker Carlson. He joined the network in 2001 as a war correspondent following the 9/11 attacks.
Exposing myself. I have been a fan of Mr. Rivera’s ever since I was glued to the TV set watching him host the show about opening Al Capone’s vault in Chicago. Yes, the show may have been a flop, but he was mesmerizing. I couldn't take my eyes off of him. The irony of this book is that's exactly where this book starts. It's not a great book, but it's not too bad either. It walks a fine line between interesting reading and a trashy tell-all.
