TV Notes;Emmy Nominations for News
Date: 23 July 1996

Andrew Heyward, president of CBS News, had a hatful of announcements yesterday -- about political convention coverage, new assignments for producers and correspondents, and even the theme music for the new CBS morning show, written and sung by Carly Simon. Perhaps nothing made him happier, though, than announcing that CBS News had earned 19 nominations for 1995 News and Documentary Emmy awards. The 126 nominations, announced in New York by the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, were culled from 1,288 entries, the most ever, said John Cannon, the academy's president.

CRITIC'S NOTEBOOK;New and Familiar Faces In News Channel Debut
Date: 23 July 1996
By Walter Goodman

Surfing through the debut week of MSNBC, the new cable news channel ("The Revolution Begins Here"), I noticed no revolution, but found a potential rival to CNN, with special attention to the Internet generation. This 24-hour-a-day collaboration between NBC News and Microsoft invites E-mail questions to add to the call-in questions, the interviewers' questions and the panelists' comments that keep talk television babbling along. Thousands of Web residents are hastening to put in their two bytes' worth, but CNN has its own Internet address (as well as a much bigger audience), and old-fashioned computer-challenged viewers couldn't care less one way or the other. Switching on during the day, viewers may not immediately recognize whether they are patronizing CNN or MSNBC, the headlines, the chat and even some of the commercials being pretty much the same. The new service benefits from fresh faces at the anchor desks along with "the people you know," NBC News familiars like Gwen Ifill. The production is a dash more elaborate than CNN's; the reporting can be overemphatic; the panelists seem smarter, but that could change as they sink into their roles.

In this summer's hit movie here, three working women from a poor Cairo neighborhood fret about their meager choice of marriageable louts. Aside from routine problems like bagging a longtime fiance seemingly allergic to commitment or warding off the boss's gropings, much of the plot of the movie, "Oh Life, You Are My Love," revolves around a shop clerk insisting that any man she marries must love her despite her lost virginity. When suitor after suitor flees, her friends convince her that some restorative surgery will fool all future mates.

In 1952, when I was 14 years old, I had just begun to swim for the Amateur Athletic Union team at the Walter Reed Army Hospital pool in Washington. That year, some of the women made the Olympic team, and one brought me a letter opener from Helsinki, Finland. It has "Suomi" inscribed on the handle; 11 summer Olympiads later, I keep it on my desk.

This editorial protested my dismissal from my post as the New York correspondent for Spanish Television after an uncomfortable interview with Spain's new Prime Minister, Jose Maria Aznar, a conservative.

Journal;Cybernews Is No News

When the news first broke about T.W.A. flight 800, I did what any self-respecting American would do: glued myself to the TV. As a cable subscriber, I now had the added inducement of two all-disaster-all-the-time channels to surf between -- CNN and the spanking new MSNBC. Your cable box may not offer MSNBC yet, but surely you've seen the oppressively chic, laptop-laden promos. It's the future, it's the revolution, it's the Internet! Though MSNBC is the merger of network TV news and Microsoft, it was NBC's Brian Williams, not a Micronerd, who loomed on screen to fill air time with scanty information, dropped cues and droning experts. CNN's coverage followed the same old-fashioned TV tradition, except that its stiffly coiffed anchors seemed less human than the affable Mr. Williams. When the story is inexplicable mass death, a TV viewer wants company, not androids. On that irrational basis alone, I inclined toward MSNBC.
