Wissenswertes
Over 85% of Americans watched some portion of the hearings, which lasted for weeks. And, chances are, most of them watched on public television. In an age before CNN and the 24 hour television news cycle, your local PBS station, WETA broadcast all 250 hours of testimony and fed it to public television stations around the country.

Studio hosts Robert MacNeil and Jim Lehrer provided context and commentary from WETA's studio in Shirlington.
