There are certainly many more things that can be said about Bergman and Antonioni than can be said about good ol' Merv, but I thought I'd pay tribute to his TV presence by putting up one of the "salacious" stories aired on the classic Fox TV show A Current Affair. Watch how perennially sopped journo Steve Dunleavy dotes on the very gayness of the story, ably abetted by Merv's lover's lawyer. I don't know how this case was resolved, but it did provide us with a great few minutes of sleazy interviewing (both gents look like they came straight from Central Casting), and a chance for those N.Y. Post-style headline writing: "Merv in Jeopardy," kee-rist!
