NBC's ubiquitous prime-time newsmagazine, the one that finally succeeded after more than a decade of attempts (and the one that has aired in many time slots on the network). The series offers a mix of investigations, news updates and celebrity interviews.
  • Judge Says To Catch a Predator Lawsuit Can Proceed | Today's News: Our Take | 2/27/2008
    A $100 million lawsuit that charges Dateline NBC with causing the suicide of a former Texas prosecutor ensnared in one of its To Catch a Predator investigations is moving forward. A federal judge ruled Tuesday that claims made in the suit filed by Patricia Conradt, the sister of Louis Conradt, can proceed to trial.Conradt, 56, shot himself in November 2006 after he was confronted at his Terrell, Texas, home by police officers accompanying a Dateline crew. Police were attempting to arrest Conradt after he solicited sex from a decoy posing as a 13-year-old boy during a Predator sting operation. While some charges in the lawsuit were dismissed, U.S. District Judge Denny Chin said "a reasonable jury could find NBC crossed the line from responsible journalism to irresponsible and reckless intrusion into law enforcement." The judge also ruled that NBC appeared to be "pushing police to engage in tactics that were unnecessary and unwise, solely to generate more dramatic footage for a... read more
  • Ask Matt | 12/10/2007
    I am curious about the fate of the once-popular newsmagazine. I remember a time when every network had multiple newsmagazines on the air. CBS had 48 Hours and two versions of 60 Minutes at one time, and NBC used to play Dateline four times a week. Now we only have 20/20, 60 Minutes and the occasional "To Catch a Predator." What happened? Was it simply a shift in people's tastes? Did networks run these shows into the ground? Do you think a prolonged strike will see the reintroduction of shows ... read more

  • Has NBC Preyed on Its Last Predator? | TV Guide News Report | 9/5/2007
    Since 2004, Dateline NBC's To Catch a Predator has put an uncomfortable spotlight on men who go online to solicit underage boys and girls for sex. But in recent months, the hidden-camera sting operation has been facing some heat of its own.NBC Universal is being sued by the sister of an assistant county prosecutor from a Dallas suburb who shot himself last November when police and a Dateline crew loomed outside his door with an arrest warrant. The prosecutor, Louis Conradt Jr., was about to be charged with soliciting sex with a minor after he engaged in explicit online and phone conversations with an adult posing as a 13-year-old boy in a Predator investigation. Among numerous accusations in the $105-million lawsuit, Patricia Conradt contends that Dateline "steamrolled" police in Murphy, Texas, into arresting her brother at his home, leading to his suicide.NBC News has called the suit "preposterous," saying there was no reason to believe that Conradt was aware of Dateline's... read more
  • 20/20 Investigation Preys on Dateline's Predator | Today's News: Our Take | 8/16/2007
    Hot off an Esquire article as well as a lawsuit positing that NBC's Chris Hansen-hosted Dateline: To Catch a Predator series went above and beyond the call of journalism in the name of exposing Louis Conradt, a former Murphy, Texas, DA who took his own life as a camera-toting policeman breached his home, ABC's own newsmagazine is getting in on the action. In a rare instance of a program acknowledging the existence of a rival, 20/20 is working on a story about To Catch a Predator's four-day sting operation, to determine whether Conradt was the victim of questionable or compromised law-enforcement tactics. read more
