Title: Telethon pilot article

Rich Fields discusses his experience announcing a failed Wink Martindale hosted pilot, complete with lots of photos. Not sure when it was done, but he does mention he was TPIR's announcer at the time.

Can anyone help me find where the actual "game" part of this comes in?  B-list celebs begging for pledges for their favorite charity and, I suppose, the one with the highest pledges gets a bonus?  Is this a game?  Really?

B-list is being very generous.
