''Bill Moyers Journal'' was an American television current affairs program that covered an array of current affairs and human issues, including but not limited to economics, history, literature, religion, philosophy, science, and most frequently politics. Originally, Bill Moyers executive produced, wrote and hosted the ''Journal.'' WNET in New York produced it and PBS aired it from 1972 to 1976. In 1979, following a nearly three-year hiatus, PBS announced that ''Bill Moyers Journal'' would return for a second series, which would cover a broader range of issues in depth. This included election coverage and documentary footage from several U.S. states, among them Florida, Texas, Illinois, DC and Nevada. In addition, among its pop-culture coverage, the ''Journal'' reported on the 25th anniversary of the premiere of the long-running NBC talk program ''The Tonight Show''. Like the first installment, the second one was produced by WNET in New York City, and was aired on PBS. The second installment ended in 1981. For the second time, ''Bill Moyers Journal'' returned to television on April 25, 2007.〔(Bill Moyers Journal Returns to PBS Line-Up in April )〕 The debut episode was "Buying The War",〔(Bill Moyers Journal .

On November 20, 2009, Moyers announced that he would retire from the ''Journal'' effective April 30, 2010. The April 30, 2010, 90-minute special series finale reported on Iowa Citizens for Community Improvement and featured an interview with community organizer Jim Hightower. Moyers concluded with an interview with writer Barry Lopez and a personal reflection on his relationship to journalism.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=Bill Moyers Journal )〕 ''Bill Moyers Journals website provides an extensive video, blog, and transcript archive dating back to 1974, and includes ''NOW on PBS'', the program Moyers hosted from 2002 to 2004, during his hiatus from the ''Journal.''〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Archive )〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bill Moyers Journal」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
