Episode 474 The Fall of Bob Packwood (Part 8) The Packwood Interviews Dole 15

from BOB DOLE : The Life that Brought Him There · host Randal Wallace

Send us Fan MailIn this episode we give Senator Bob Packwood the final word on his quick and tragic fall. Amazingly, he agreed to sit down interviews with CBS News, Dan Rather, ABC News Barbara Walters, and an extended interview with CBS News “Face the Nation” with Bob Schieffer. All over a three day period after he was forced to resign from the Senate. He is very open about his struggles and how he feels about the events of those past few days. At the time he appeared to be facing criminal prosecution. That never happened and it spoke volumes about all the non-sexual misconduct accusations piled on him as the scandal unraveled his career. This will end the scandal but we will now hear from Bob Packwood in a series of episodes covering a couple of his  speeches and a fascinating oral history on Bob Dole.  Questions or comments at  , [email protected] ,  https://twitter.com/randal_wallace   , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!
