Reply #6: I used to love Harrison's KTLA show

[tishaLA]

and then management rather unceremoniously took him from us and gave us....somebody like Colmes or something (before they also axed Colmes' show). I have loved listening to Harrison this week. He's smart, funny, and he has an amazing vocabulary!

He did a really great piece on NPR that he played on his KTLA show. He was investigating his family history and, in researching it (I'm going to get this wrong somehow), he ended up discovering that some of his relatives in MD were slave owners. But he also noticed that many African Americans in that area shared the same last name and, in his digging, realized that their ancestors had been slaves in his ancestor's plantation/home; part of the documentary was Harrison visiting the descendants of the enslaved to apologize to them for what his great- great- great grandfather had done.
