+<title>Bill Wattenburg’s Background: Television Shows</title>

+<h1>Television Shows</h1>
+
+<p id="dolphins">Bill Wattenburg’s first television show was an expose on the slaughter of
+dolphins by tuna fishing fleets called “The Last Days of the Dolphins”,
+which Westinghouse Broadcasting aired nationally in 1975. Strong complaints from
+major food company advertisers who market tuna almost cancelled the show. The
+original celebrity host had backed out after major advertisers complained.
+Wattenburg agreed to replace him. This shocking documentary showed the needless
+slaughter of 500,000 dolphins a year because tuna fisherman refused to change
+the crude nets they had been using for decades. Congress outlawed the old nets a
+week after this dramatic show was aired nationwide.</p>
+
+<p id="KPIX">Westinghouse Broadcasting Co. (KPIX Channel 5 TV, San Francisco) then asked Bill
+Wattenburg to host a new half-hour newsmagazine show which aired on Friday
+nights primetime (The People’s Five Show) from September 1975 to 1977. They used one of
+the first TV mini-cams to shoot the show “on the street” with only one
+cameraman-director, host Wattenburg, and no scriptwriters.</p>
+
+<p>This show and its format were later expanded to become Westinghouse’s
+“Evening Magazine”, which has been syndicated nationwide since 1977 <i>[usually
+under the name “P.M. Magazine” outside of the SF broadcasting area</i>—<i>PKS]</i>.
+Wattenburg returned to weekend talk radio and his scientific work at the
+university when the TV show went to five nights a week.</p>
