morley safer, which side of that do you come down on?ertainly the sadism. >> it's a scary thought going up against mike wallace. >> brown: jeff fager, we think of the early "got you" style or sting operations of course. not everyone loved that. it caused a lot of discussion in the journalism world but mike wallace evolved from that as well, right? >> yes he did. i think it was a difficult period because they actually did enjoy doing it. it grew the audience significantly. it became such a feature and a signature of the broadcast. but i think in later years and actually during it, he realized you know what?na we're doing this more for the drama than for the news value. that's not appropriate. so the idea that someone woulddr be sweating this front of a mike wallace interview or he was going to be chasing some t bad guy down a hall, i think they realized was much more about performance and drama and wasn't really of any t value. m >> brown: morley safer you said earlier he was a toughe. guy outside of work. i gather he was a tough guy at t
