It's News to Me

It's News to Me is an American panel game show produced by Mark Goodson and Bill Todman for CBS Television.

Among the celebrities who would appear as panelists were actresses Anna Lee and Nina Foch, journalist Quincy Howe, TV hostess Robin Chandler, radio host and storyteller John Henry Faulk, New York Yankees play-by-play announcer Mel Allen, and writer Quentin Reynolds.

In this round, eyewitnesses or participants involved with news events in the past or present would play a game similar to "I've Got a Secret".

[1] In mid-1951, CBS cancelled its popular dramedy The Goldbergs after its creator Gertrude Berg refused to cooperate with the Hollywood blacklist and General Foods withdrew its sponsorship.

Like other live broadcast series of the time, It's News to Me was recorded via kinescope onto film and the status of most of the episodes is unknown.
