What the life and legacy of Jerry Springer reveals about our culture today

Season 1 Published 3 years, 1 month ago
Description

Famed—and infamous—talk show host Jerry Springer died yesterday at the age of seventy-nine after a brief battle with pancreatic cancer. But while those who knew him well recall a man committed to his Jewish heritage and his community, most are likely to remember him as the host of one of television’s most outlandish and shocking shows. What that says about us and our culture, however, is more important than what it says about him.
