Journalist Marie Torre (Whose Original Family Name Is Torregrossa, Before She Shortened The Family Name To Torre), Who Had Worked At Westinghouse Broadcasting/Group W-Owned KDKA-TV In Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; And At ABC Owned And Operated WXYZ-TV; Is Such A Wonderful Journalist. Sad That She Was Charged In Contempt Of Court At One Time In 1959 For Refusing To Disclose The Name Of An Associate Of Judy Garland. Her Daughter, Roma Torre Is Just As Much Of A Wonderful Journalist As Her Mother Was.
