Director Christopher Murphy was eager to broaden his theatrical horizons with the historical and dramatic nature of "Frost/Nixon."

 Every decade has its defining TV moment, and Fort Wayne's Arena Dinner Theatre brings one from the 70's to life with its production of "Frost/Nixon."

For a look at the impact these men, and their post-Watergateinterviews wielded, WBOI's Julia Meek met with director, Christopher Murphy, and Nixon's portrayer, Jeff Moore, to discuss the power media has on politics -- then and now.
