TV Alert, 9 p.m. EST: Giuliani: What Happened to America's Mayor

Four-part series that premieres tonight at 9 p.m. EST on CNN.

https://cnncreativemarketing.com/project/giuliani/

I don't watch CNN anymore but I think I'll give this a shot.

Quite frankly, I would like to know what happened to him that turned him into one of America's most pathetic figures. He went from being a mayor of a major American city to being a nutcase with dye running down his face, all in service to a disgraced, twice-impeached president.

Will the program discuss booze?

Psychological issues?

That's what I'm curious about.

I plan on watching the Rudy show, too. His decline and fall is probably attributable to a toxic mix of hubris and booze.

3. Not to mention a grossly inflated reputation, thanks to 9/11.

As I recall, New Yorkers were ready to run him out of town before 9/11 happened.

He thought it was a great idea to put the city's emergency center in the World Trade Center--after it had already been bombed once.

10. Yeah. It didn't help when he announced his divorce before telling his soon to be ex.

Hillary would have kicked his ass like she did with Lazko.

Rudy was a joke after the first couple of years in office as mayor. I worked in NYC until 2004.

I think these documentaries were filmed before the right winger Licht took over. I had hoped he would turn cnn more middle to left because he worked for Stephen Colbert but he showed his true colors. Lost my respect for him with his rightward lurch on CNN.
