THE MEDIA BUSINESS: Television; Morning News Programs Draw the Young and Mobile

Even if viewers don't think that early-morning television qualifies as breakfast for their heads, they are clearly demonstrating a bigger hunger for it. Over the last year, the three network morning programs -- ABC's "Good Morning, America," NBC's "Today" and CBS's "This Morning" -- have all added viewers, and since the first of the year they have done particularly well.

The New Jersey Network, the state-owned television system, which less than a year ago was threatened with extinction as the Legislature cut its financing and legislative leaders proposed selling its stations, is back from the financial brink.
If not exactly thriving, the network is at least holding its own, as it prepares to move into a new $23 million broadcast center in downtown Trenton and expands its evening news program from 28 minutes to 56 minutes, starting tomorrow.

Ireland's Troubled Sleep
Date: 05 April 1993

Twenty thousand people thronged central Dublin two Sundays ago, calling on the Irish Republican Army to "Stop the Bloody Murder." They congregated in silence to hear Sinead O'Connor, the pop star who tore up a photo of the Pope on "Saturday Night Live," sing the Roman Catholic hymn, "Make Me a Channel of Your Peace." The rally made for compelling drama on TV news and on the front pages of American papers. But like many Irish-Americans, I was ambivalent. The media's fixation on the event reinforced misguided conventional wisdom about the Irish conflict. The rally represented a repudiation of the shadowy organization that claims to represent the Irish soul, that proclaims its legacy of bloodshed and martyrdom to be entwined with the deepest Irish sense of self.

Still a Dream 25 Years After King's Assassination
Date: 04 April 1993

Twenty-five years after the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated in Memphis, more than half of black and white Americans rate the nation's race relations as poor, and blacks and whites remain deeply divided on economic issues like preferential hiring and promotion of minorities. The findings in a New York Times/ CBS News poll conducted March 28-31, as well as the prevailing sour racial mood, in which the name King today more often summons up Rodney G. King than the slain civil rights leader, provide a gloomy counterpoint to nationwide observances in memory of Dr. King's death on April 4, 1968.

Girls Of Summer

Fourteen years ago, on another splendid opening day, I arrived in Boston as one of the first woman baseball columnists in the major leagues. Women had just been permitted in the clubhouse. Who could forget the brouhaha over getting us into that cherished inner sanctum: lawsuits had been joined, players had protested, players' wives had weighed in with their doubts and fears, columns and columns of overheated prose had been devoted to the debate.
Women won, and I was hired to be the "female jockstrap," as the players called me. I was woefully naive, a baseball innocent, a novelty act dreamed up by the new editor of The Boston Herald-American, Don Forst, who was convinced a "Red Sox Diary" by a woman on the front page was a way to get his paper noticed. "Talk to the pitchers about their anxiety attacks, and talk to the wives about their loneliness, and see what the first baseman has to say about his life," he suggested. "But for God's sake, don't write about the game." Of course not. Everyone knew I was hired only to be the first skirt, to write the women's stuff.

Rule Waiver Called Likely For Murdoch
Date: 04 April 1993
By Edmund L. Andrews

Federal regulators say they are willing to consider Rupert Murdoch's request for an exemption to rules that would otherwise bar him from buying The New York Post, but they insist that any exemption would be narrowly tailored to that case. Mr. Murdoch was forced to sell The Post in 1988 because of a rule at the Federal Communications Commission that bars a company from owning both a television station and a newspaper in the same city. But the circumstances today are entirely different, and most media experts say that Mr. Murdoch will probably win approval to own both The Post and WNYW-TV, Channel 5.

International 3-9 AID RISES TO $1.6 BILLION President Clinton pledged $1.6 billion in assistance intended to show "immediate and tangible" support for Boris N. Yeltsin's reforms. The amount was higher than the initial $1 billion because of $700 million in long-term, low-cost credits to enable Russia to start receiving American grain shipments.
