Dragnet: ‘Just the Facts. Ma’am’
Did Dragnet’s Sgt. Joe Friday character frequently implore female informants to provide ‘Just the facts, ma’am’?

Truth or Consequences is an American game show originally hosted on NBC radio by Ralph Edwards (1940–1957) and later on television by Edwards (1950–1954), Jack Bailey (1954–1956), Bob Barker (1956–1975), Steve Dunne (1957–1958), Bob Hilton (1977–1978) and Larry Anderson (1987–1988).[3] The television show ran on CBS, NBC and also in syndication. The premise of the show was to mix the original quiz element of game shows with wacky stunts.
The daily syndicated show was produced by Ralph Edwards Productions (later Ralph Edwards/Stu Billett Productions), in association with and distributed by Metromedia Producers Corporation (1966–1978) and Lorimar-Telepictures (1987–1988). Current rights are owned by Ralph Edwards Productions and FremantleMedia.

To Tell the Truth is an American television panel show in which four celebrity panelists are presented with three contestants (the “team of challengers”, each an individual or pair) and must identify which is the “central character” whose unusual occupation or experience has been read aloud by the show’s moderator/host. When the panelists question the contestants, the two impostors may lie whereas the “central character” must tell the truth. The setup adds the impostor element to the format of What’s My Line? and I’ve Got a Secret.
The show was created by Bob Stewart and originally produced by Mark Goodson–Bill Todman Productions. It aired—both on the CBS television network, from 1956 to 1968, and in syndication, from 1969 to 1978—and has been revived several times since then, reaching a total of 31 seasons by 2021. The original host was Bud Collyer, who hosted the show during its CBS years from 1956–1968. He was replaced by Garry Moore when the show moved to syndication in 1969, and stayed the host into 1977, though Moore’s health trouble resulted in a number of guest hosts during his tenure, and led to his eventual retirement, to be replaced on a permanent basis as host by Joe Garagiola, a former panelist and frequent guest host. Garagiola hosted until the show was cancelled in 1978.
Robin Ward hosted a 1980–1981 syndicated revival of the program, and a 1990–1991 revival on the NBC network featured a succession of different hosts; the longest-serving were Gordon Elliott and Alex Trebek. The show was revived again in syndication from 2000 to 2002 and hosted by John O’Hurley. The most recent iteration is now on the ABC network and has been hosted by Anthony Anderson since 2016.
Here’s How Much Joe Biden Is Worth

Joe Biden earned $17.3 million over the four years he was out of office, but his net worth is only an estimated $8 million. Why isn’t he richer?
On the day America’s first billionaire president took office, “middle class” Joe Biden boarded the Amtrak out of Washington D.C.’s Union Station, bound for Delaware with the kind of modest fortune you might expect from someone who had spent his adult life as an elected official: $2.5 million, mostly composed of pensions and real estate. But Biden was about to cash in. By the end of 2017, he and his wife Jill had earned $11.1 million. They raked in $4.6 million the next year, followed by $1 million in 2019 and $630,000 in 2020.
The story of how Biden became a wealthy man in the wake of his vice presidency, leveraging his fame to sell books and deliver speeches, has been told many times. But a closer look at the math prompts a question that hasn’t been asked: Why isn’t Biden even richer? If someone starts with a $2.5 million net worth and earns $17.3 million while the markets are raging, you’d expect him to be worth more than $8 million. So what happened to Biden’s money? Well, $7 million of it covered taxes, another $1.3 million went to charity, $180,000 paid for household staff and an estimated $80,000 went toward interest on mortgages. Take those items out, though, and you’re still a few million above Biden’s estimated net worth.
There’s a chance that Biden, who shares his fortune with his wife Jill, gave some to other family members. Or perhaps he just spent it all. In order to be worth $8 million—as an analysis of Biden’s financial disclosure reports, property records and career earnings suggest he is—the president would have had to blow an average of roughly some $2,000 per day over the four years he was out of office.
The White House did not respond to multiple requests for comment about Joe Biden’s money.
You can learn a lot about how a president might manage the country’s finances by how they have handled their own. Donald Trump may have come from a party that prides itself on fiscal conservatism, but anyone with a cursory understanding of his financial history—with huge debts financing lavish developments, many of which failed—could have told you at the outset that he wasn’t the sort of guy who would be likely to watch the national budget carefully. And he didn’t—deficits ballooned 68% even before the pandemic, largely thanks to a massive tax cut that benefitted rich people and corporations.
Biden’s priorities are different. He seems determined to give money to the middle class rather than the wealthy. He has already passed a $1.9 trillion Covid relief bill and just suggested a $6 trillion budget. A detailed look at his personal finances suggest that he and Trump have something in common, however. Both are people who don’t mind taking on debt and enjoy spending freely. So don’t be surprised if the national debt keeps soaring.
Biden Vs. Trump
Joe Biden may be wealthy compared to the average American, but his fortune still pales in comparison to his predecessor.
Biden’s grandfather was an executive with American Oil. His father tried out a number of businesses but they all failed, and the family fell on hard times. He later landed a job as a car salesman. Nonetheless, Joe Biden wasn’t interested in a safe career path. As a student at the University of Delaware in the early 1960s, asked his friends a question: “You guys could be guaranteed—upon graduation—a job at the DuPont company, with a nice starting salary and a job for life, but you would never make more than $40,000 a year (some $350,000 today). Or you could take a job at half the salary, no guarantees, but there would be no limit to the money you could make. Which would you take?” The answer was clear for Biden. He told his friends he would take the chance.
After graduating from law school, Biden bet on himself, borrowing money from the bank that financed the cars his father sold to start his own firm in downtown Wilmington, Delaware. But he wasn’t a big saver. After the firm won its first big case, Biden received a $5,000 check. He and his wife Neilia, a schoolteacher, promptly spent it on a four-poster bed, a dining set and a desk. “The bill was substantial—maybe more than the check—but so was the furniture,” Biden wrote in his 2007 memoir, Promises To Keep. “This was our adventure, and Neilia was so sure of our future.”…CONT…
