Jim's observations on the specials hosted by Peter Jennings about Jesus Christ is absolutely correct.  I well remember the specials and the plethora of reprobate liberal -- ultraliberal -- theologians he covered heavily such as members from The Jesus Seminar , as was described in a post by Scott Miller reviewing Jennings' ABC special "Jesus and Paul" :
 

[One of the usual suspects was Robert Funk from the Jesus seminar. Almost the first sentence out of his mouth was that he believed that Christ didn't say or do something. Those belonging to the Jesus seminar are like those old pull string dolls that can say one or two phrases because of a little plastic record player embedded within. Pull the string of a Jesus seminar theologian and you will get "Christ didn't say that" or "It was added later"]

    Jennings also showed his contempt for Christianity in the way he reported the vociferous protest by Protestants and Catholics at Universal Studios  back in 1988 concerning The Last Temptation of Christ, the blasphemous motion picture made by Michael Scorsese.
    At the time, I was on vacation at my wife's parents' home in Indiana.  They had one of those large 9-foot satellite dishescapable to tunning in multiple broadcast satellites..  So I watched the news feeds transmitted to ABC by the local ABC affiliates in Los Angeles for use by ABC for their evening national newscast by Peter Jennings.
    These feeds clearly showed a huge crowd of Christian protesters outside the Universal Studio headquarters, with local estimates stating the crowd size was at 30,000 plus.
    Peter Jennings TV broadcast showed a small edge of the crowd, didn't look big at all, and he stated the crowd was about 10,000.
    These local ABC feeds had minutes and minutes of film from overhead along the freeway showing a huge long line of cars stalled in a line trying to exit to Universal Studios, that was 12 miles in length -- twelve miles!
    Peter Jennings newscast did not even mention the long line of frustrated protesters unable to join in much less show them.
    To top it off, Jennings awarded Michael Scorsese a some sort of a congratulatory award for the person most courageous under fire or some such sort.

        Finally. I recall an article but cannot locate the source stating Jennings as saying the person he would have preferred to interview most if he could would be St. Paul, to see whether or not he was really mad.
