Debate over the media’s treatment of high-profile trials came to the fore at Harvard Law School yesterday, as Michael Jackson’s defense attorney, Thomas Mesereau Jr. ’73, MSNBC anchor and correspondent Dan Abrams, and Middlesex County District Attorney Martha Coakley all participated in a panel on race and the Jackson trial. Mesereau, who was named one of Barbara Walters’ “10 Most Fascinating People of 2005,” served previously as the defense attorney for actor Robert Blake and accepted the Jackson case after its first...
RETIRED. TED KOPPEL, 65, as the veteran anchor of ABC's Nightline, three years after the network's embarrassingly public attempt to bring in David Letterman to take over his time slot; in Washington.

...leading scorer in Crimson history with 63 points. Her marks of 20 career goals and 23 assists are good for ninth- and third-best all-time, respectively. McDavitt also owns the single-season record for helpers with 18, a league-leading total she established in 2004. Sackovich, who helped anchor an at-times stellar Harvard backfield, is no stranger to distinction herself. The senior was second-team All-Ivy last year, as well. Knoche was literally flawless within the cage to begin her collegiate career, recording four straight shutouts to lead the nation in goals-against average (GAA). Although...
