Page "Ole Anthony" Paragraph 2

Anthony's investigative work into the fundraising tactics of big-money televangelists first came to national attention in 1991 following a Primetime Live hidden-camera investigation of televangelists.

Anthony portrayed himself — a Dallas minister of a small church trying to learn how big-money ministries work — in the segment on fellow East Dallas minister Robert Tilton.

Anthony and the Trinity Foundation were instrumental in providing evidence for the many state and Federal investigations of Tilton in the years that followed, and he is often interviewed by reporters in preparations for stories on other televangelists.
