The Amazing Kreskin was shown on Canadian TV for a time several decades
ago. I remember watching it once and being pretty skeptical of him, as I
am of all such people. Not long later, there were rumours circulating
that he was a fake and that his signature glasses actually hid a secret
earpiece where a confederate could whisper things into his ears that let
him seem amazing.

 Wasn't he a stage magacian who did card tricks, etc?
 

I only ever saw him once and he didn't do any card tricks then but he may have at other points in his career. He described himself as a "mentalist", not a magician.
