The Abbott And Costello Show presents “Running A Newspaper with Hedda Hopper,” originally broadcast March 2, 1944. This archival NBC comedy features Bud Abbott and Lou Costello with guest star Hedda Hopper.
Mayor Bud launches the Sherman Oaks Gazette, putting Lou to work in the bustling new newsroom. With Mrs. Niles on fashion and Hedda Hopper considering a gossip column, Bud and Lou set out to find a front-page scoop at an exclusive party—where getting through the door becomes its own comic challenge.
The Abbott And Costello Show presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
