The anchor and chief Washington correspondent, who’s well acquainted with political scandals of the moment, takes a look back in the tabloid-drenched rearview mirror for a six-part docuseries profiling some of the more notorious headliners of our times. The series opens with back-to-back episodes, the first dealing with disgraced former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich, caught on an FBI wiretap discussing a plan to sell President Barack Obama’s vacated Senate seat. Next up: former South Carolina Governor and Congressman (and for a minute a presidential contender) Mark Sanford, whose 2009 disappearance “on the Appalachian trail” was a cover for an extramarital liaison with his Argentinian mistress.
