Stop Scandal Is Answer Says Detective Otash
Los Angeles private detective Fred Otash told a State Senate panel that removing scandal magazines requires ending scandal itself. He also disclosed a past relationship with Anita Ekberg and supplying Confidential with secret photos. He urged expelling Communists and sexual deviants from Hollywood, arguing it would end scandal and magazines. The hearing covered a proposed 350000 movie industry fund to fight scandal mags and a pocket radio device used to relay conversations to a recorder in a parked truck three blocks away. The panel seeks whether laws should tighten controls on private eyes selling information to expose magazines.
