This week: Shoot-out at Rio Lobo

There are a number of ways to report for television. George Plimpton is an American television reporter who goes about it in a somewhat unusual manner. He doesn't observe - he joins. Tonight Man Alive hands over to a George Plimpton report: in which, as a reporter, he becomes part of the industry he intends to observe - this time a Hollywood western.
