  • Man Trapped in Elevator for 41 Hours | Today's News: Our Take | 4/22/2008
    You may have seen or heard about the video making its round on the internet of the raw surveillance footage of a man trapped in an elevator alone—no watch, cell phone or water—for 41 solid hours. The incident happened 1999 but has recently garnered a lot of buzz after it was uncovered by The New Yorker. In an exclusive interview with GMA's Diane Sawyer, the man caught on tape, Nicholas White, revealed what was going through his mind while trapped within the confines of the tiny elevator. read more

  • Thanks to Spitzer, Diane Sawyer's Shelved Piece on Pros Scores a Date | Today's News: Our Take | 3/17/2008
    A never-aired, two-year-old ABC News special examining Nevada's legal brothels will finally see the light of day, thanks to the Eliot Spitzer scandal and the attention it has drawn to prostitution rings. According to the New York Daily News, the Diane Sawyer-led undercover investigative piece was pegged to the famous Moonlite Bunny Ranch, but also interviewed high-priced Manhattan call girls (à la "Kristen"). Amid charges of base pandering, the project lived in limbo. But now, in light of the headlines surrounding the former New York governor, the special has been given a go, and will air this Friday on 20/20. read more
  • Katie Holmes: GMA Denies that SoftbalI Q&A Was Cruise-controlled | Today's News: Our Take | 1/15/2008
    ABC's Good Morning America is in damage-control mode after Diane Sawyer failed to ask Katie Holmes any questions about the controversial (if shoddily sourced) "tell-all" that made headlines last week when it posited, among other things, that Suri is actually the progeny of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard (via insemination with Walt Disney'd sperm). "[Sawyer] had every intention of going there," GMA executive producer Jim Murphy insists to the New York Daily News. "But like always, Diane wants to produce creative elements, clips of her early life, spring surprises and have some fun." Such fun elements — including video of Holmes in a school play — ultimately sucked up the eight minutes allotted to the sitdown. "It was one of those bad calls on my part," Murphy admits to Page Six. "Diane doesn't generally get angry, but she was disappointed in how I handled it, yes."Watch video of Katie's similarly homogenized appearance on Regis & Kelly. read more
