He [Donald Trump] is a tough boss. I've known him for decades. He hasn't changed very much. He's a driven person, highly intelligent, and he's very motivated, very charismatic, and he is tough as nails in the sense there's no slack there. You can't put anything over on Donald. Donald can see right through someone trying to dissemble or spin stuff.
I love cops. I think you have to walk in their shoes to understand, you know when they use violence, Michael Brown in Ferguson, a classic case.
I like the fact that it [social media] is unfiltered. In other words it's not Geraldo of Fox News or Geraldo of WABC Radio, it's Geraldo. And you know it's raw, unedited, what I'm thinking, what I'm feeling, or, you know, some mistakes I'm making in real time. And I see that as a way to go out kicking and screaming. People will be hearing from me 'til the bitter end now.
I am urging the parents of black and Latino youngsters particularly to not let their children go out wearing hoodies.
The biggest stories in 2005 were the national disasters
To see those babies with no food for three of four days, old people sitting in the hot sun, when you see these poor people, you cannot help but being compassionate or affected.
I did an expose of an institution for the population with developmental disabilities, and the institutions were closed as a result of the expose. Now the developmentally disabled are cared for in small community-based residences, and I've been working very hard over the decades to open as many of them as I can.
It's a great pleasure having survived six generations of TV critics
Am I the only one who thinks Nancy Grace's relentless cheer leading for Jodi Arias' death gross & excessive? The anchor as executioner?!
Hip-hop has done more damage to black and brown people than racism in the last 10 years,
tailor their journalism on the basis of whether it's someone they like or respect or not, and I think it's really scandalous.
no, it's not safe here. I'm safe because I have these 2-3 policemen around me, but there aren't any other policemen here, and there are 30,000 angry, hungry people.
The Fox years have accelerated the process . . . because there's an animus for Fox as well as for me, ... It's intellectually lazy to attack me at this point. I've been parodied by four decades of Saturday Night Live: Who's going to beat Jim Carrey? Just run with the lemmings and put down Geraldo.
It's interesting that the Katrina coverage hearkened back to those topics . . . what I've always covered, ... I feel like the news business has come back to me, rather than the other way around.
