Page "Morton Downey, Jr." Paragraph 16

In 1990, Downey resurfaced on CNBC with an interview program called Showdown, which was followed by three attempted talk radio comebacks: first in 1992 on Washington, D. C. radio station WWRC ; then in 1993 on Dallas radio station KGBS, where he would scream insults at his callers.

He was also hired as the station's VP of Operations.

The following year he returned to CNBC with a short-lived television show, Downey, that was similar in theme to his earlier, more popular show.

In one episode, Downey claimed to have had a psychic communication with O. J.

Simpson's murdered ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson.
