18. he sold his soul to provide for his disabled adult daughter

I read long time ago... that's how he went from progressive politician (mayor??) to Jerry Springer show.

5. His episode of Who Do You Think You Are was very telling.

His parents were one of the last group of people to flee Nazi Germany. Both of his grandmothers were killed in the Holocaust.

6. Overlooked because of his TV fame

was his excellent radio show on Air America.

He was a good liberal, and while Air America lasted, Springer's show was a good one.

13. Pretty much

Destroyed his political career paying a prostitute by check.

Destroyed his credibility with the public by airing that TV show.

But he was actually really good on the radio. If only they hadn't set out to destroy him politically back when sex scandals could destroy you politically. In some ways I don't blame him for the TV show after what they did to him in that race. They dragged him into the gutter and he found fame there despite them. Too bad he couldn't get the same audience when he did serious stuff. But that's a societal fault.

20. he went for the $$ because of adult disabled daughter (born blind and deaf)

Katie Springer is the daughter of American broadcaster, journalist, and actor Jerry Springer. Her father is famous as the host of the controversial TV talk show The Jerry Springer Show. The show ran for 26 years, starting on September 30, 1991, and ending on June 13, 2018.

If you didn’t know, Katie was born blind and deaf, but at present, she has been leading a normal life. In fact, she is married and is living a beautiful relationship with her husband. In this article, we will talk about her disability, wedding, net worth, and many other details.

28. Sorry, but I don't find providing for a disabled daughter to be a valid excuse . . .

. . . for exploiting the pain and humiliation of others. Many people have disabled children they need to provide for, and they find a way to do it without resorting to debasing our culture and exploiting vulnerable individuals.
