	Mike Wallace, Hugh Downs: Game Show Hosts
		Wallace previously made his mark in journalism as an aggressive, chain-smoking interrogator on a one-on-one show which started in New York as “Night-Beat.” The show graduated to the ABC network, and soon became known as the “The Mike Wallace Interview,” airing from 1957-58.
		He had become “Mike” by the time CBS hired him as moderator of its 1951 summer-replacement quiz/audience participation show, “Guess Again.” That game show was twice as successful one hosted by Jackie Gleason 10 years later called “You’re in the Picture.” Gleason’s show was aired once, and n’er again; Wallace’s show lasted two weeks.
		This was a role re-reversal for Wallace; the tormentor of interviewees the year before had reverted to the role of the genial host of a light-hearted game show.

		Thankfully, however, Wallace is one of the last of the prehistoric media leftist cadgers to retire to the couch.
