Springer: 'I wouldn't do show if mum was alive'
Jerry Springer is "embarrassed" by his long-running TV chat show, insisting he never would have made it if his mother was alive.
The former politician, 63, reveals he would have been deeply ashamed if his mum - a Jewish refugee who fled Nazi Germany - had watched him on The Jerry Springer Show, which sees dysfunctional guests come to blows in front of a studio audience.
