Watching People React To the News of the Day
Date: 29 August 1994

Talk shows have a variety of appeals. From some you can learn about this and that by listening to people with more information than you possess. Others offer the satisfaction of feeling superior to vox populi. And there are those that just provide the pleasure of watching one's peers mix it up on matters of moment. "Talk Back Live," the "daily, live, interactive town meeting," to quote the press release, which joined the CNN lineup last week, is in the mix-it-up mode. Susan Rook, presiding, is all bustle-bustle as she fields the opinions not only of a dozen or so audience members but also of callers, faxers and computerniks, all of whom she greets by first name. (Given her constant bending on the first show to put the microphone in the face of participants seated at this studio in the round, one feared for Ms. Rook's knees. Perhaps at her joint specialist's advice, on the second show her guests rose. On Wednesday she stood for some and bent to others; very risky.)

NEWS SUMMARY
Date: 28 August 1994
International 3-16 U.S. TO OPEN TALKS WITH CUBA The Clinton Administration said it would hold limited talks next week with Cuba on immigration matters, the first sign of conciliation and of hope that the outpouring of refugees could be brought under control. 1 RESENTMENT IN CUBA The recent riots in Cuba and the new exodus indicate that Cuba has once again become a society of two strata and that those who do not have American dollars are increasingly resentful of their lot. 1 Those who reach American shores have rights the others do not. 12 An angry demonstration in Miami protested Cuban policy. 12 MEXICO PROTEST UNRESOLVED Although Mexico's President says he is satisfied that protests did not disrupt the presidential election, the issues have not been resolved and rebel leaders vowed to persist. 14 A DIFFERENT VIEW OF HAITI Many of Haiti's light-skinned elite are wealthy, and their views are very different from those of the poor people who elected Jean-Bertrand Aristide President. 14 COMING TOGETHER IN RWANDA In a Rwandan village where more than 1,000 Tutsi were killed in an attack on a church by Hutu militias, people from both tribes are coming together to begin town life anew. 3 RETHINKING DEFENSE IN JAPAN Japan is rethinking its defense strategy, which has long relied on a core of American military bases, and even some in the party that governed Japan for years are questioning the cost of the arrangement. 16 People are skeptical of Gambia coup leaders' promise of democracy. 4 Militants warned of violence at a population conference in Cairo. 6 Foreign victims' families will be compensated for an Iraq crash. 8 British royals have a new aggressive relationship with the press. 9 The race for the presidential election has begun in France. 10 Canada has been accused of syping on the press and other groups. 16 National 18-30 HEALTH CARE CONTRADICTIONS After a year of arguing that incremental changes will only worsen health care, Clinton officials are scrambling to prove themselves wrong. 1 IN SEARCH OF NEW ELECTION ISSUES With Congressional leaders abandoning their push for universal health care before November, Democrats are now retreating from a strategy of making it an election issue. 23 TOBACCO AT DEAD END? The tobacco fields in Pitt County, N.C., among the country's most productive, are no longer paying farmers' bills because of a glut brought on by foreign competition. 1 WORRIES OF THEIR OWN Despite a week of public agonies over the dismissal of the N.A.A.C.P. director, the local branches of the civil rights group are just too busy to pay much attention. 24 SOME REST FOR THE WEARY After grappling with Cuba, the crime bill, health care and Whitewater, President Clinton and his family have started their vacation on Martha's Vineyard. 18 SCHOOL PRAYER DEBATE REIGNITED An Atlanta teacher's refusal to observe a new state law requiring a period of "quiet reflection" is a reminder that the debate over school prayer is not dead. 18 THE PRESERVING OF HISTORY The National Air and Space Museum plans to display the Enola Gay, the plane that dropped the bomb on Hiroshima, next year, but veterans groups say the display will be too forgiving of the Japanese. 25 FED OFFICIAL DISSENTS Alan S. Blinder, the vice chairman of the Federal Reserve, suggested keeping interest rates low to hold down unemployment. 26 An injunction against the building of a large telescope remained. 20 The ban on assault rifles got vocal reaction in a Virginia gun shop. 21 A study said a diet drug did not increase risk of brain damage. 28 Metro 31-36, 46 A CROSSING OF PATHS Desmond Robinson and Peter Del-Debbio come from different corners of the city's sprawling law-enforcement community. They might never have met, had it not been for a chilling misunderstanding. 1 MADISON SQUARE GARDEN SOLD Cablevision Systems and ITT emerged as the winners in the bidding for the Madison Square Garden sports and entertainment properties, according to executives of the rival bidder, Liberty Media. 1 POLITICS AND INCUMBENCY It was billed by Governor Cuomo's office as a ground-breaking ceremony for a state-financed housing project. But it felt like an old-fashioned political rally, and that's one of the advantages of incumbency. 31 BLUE CROSS'S TROUBLES LINGER Even though Empire Blue Cross and Blue Shield has begun to repair its troubled finances, state and health care industry officials say the insurer is still on a dangerous slide. 31 A TRANSIT NAME CHANGE Would New York City's transit system by any other name still be the same confusing tangle of rail and bus lines in the eyes of riders? The Metropolitan Transit Authority thinks not. 31 Obituaries 37

Perhaps the Biggest Problem Is That the Owners Don't Trust One Another

During the 50-day strike in 1981, Raymond Grebey, the owners' chief negotiator, adopted a mantra to try to show how foolish the owners believed the players were in not accepting their proposal. "We now have a strike over the rights of 11 players," Grebey would say, reducing the number every few days. Thirteen years later, baseball may have a strike because the owners don't trust one another.

A girlfriend of a man who was once a confidante of the Princess of Wales had been receiving a series of harassing telephone calls, the newspaper reported, and detectives at Scotland Yard had traced the calls to private telephones inside Princess Diana's residence.

What hath Rupert Murdoch wrought? In May, when Fox Broadcasting snatched 12 television stations from CBS, NBC and ABC, industry analysts theorized tirelessly about how Mr. Murdoch's move would affect local television markets and the relationship between networks and their affiliated stations. Such questions are no longer theoretical in this sprawling desert region of 2.2 million viewers. Virtually everything about broadcast television here is about to be turned upside down.

The Union of Cubans in Exile here is swamped. The phones ring nonstop, people are always coming in, and half the callers and drop-ins are beside themselves, crying over relatives they cannot trace to the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base or worrying about those detained there. This is life in the Second City of Cuban exiles -- frantic and frustrating -- as the drama of the Cuban refugees and the political maneuvering between Washington and Havana unfolds.

The Man in Charge

Robert Rubin
The essence of good decision making is always the same, whether it is done by a Wall Street trader, a C.E.O. or the President of the United States. The process starts with a well-grounded sense of strategy and principles. Then, for each issue, all relevant considerations need to be aggressively sought out and weighed dispassionately. Finally, the decision maker needs to make a choice that best serves the underlying purposes, however tough or distasteful the trade-offs, and then make a full-fledged commitment to carry out that choice.
By these standards, Bill Clinton is as good a decision maker as anybody I've seen in my 28-year career, first on Wall Street and then here in the White House.

Cablevision's Craving for Sports
Date: 29 August 1994
By Edmund L. Andrews
Edmund Andrews
Although he is nowhere near as famous -- or as noisy -- as cable television impresarios like Ted Turner, there is little mystery about why Charles F. Dolan was so intent on acquiring Madison Square Garden. As the chairman and chief executive of the Cablevision Systems Corporation, the nation's fourth-largest cable operator, Mr. Dolan has made sports programming -- particularly of New York sports -- a central pillar of his company's growth for nearly three decades.
