Roland: I wonder if this involves any loss of dignity...nah. Geraldo: Last summer in full view of a horrified television audience. ABC newshound Roland Hedley's headgear burst into flames!

Today on "Geraldo," noted television news doctor, Joe Felding will remove Hedley's bandages and assess the damage, live! Will Hedley be so horribly disfigured that he won't be able to get a job doing voice-overs in Peoria? Or have the plastic surgeons created the next Peter Jennings? Let's take a look... Crowd: Gasp!! Roland: What? What? Person: Doctor? Geraldo: He could work in local sports maybe.
