...newsmagazines, such as 48 Hours and the network's mercifully short-lived Coast to Coast. Taped segments will cover the usual mix of hard and soft news, with stories ranging from Bosnian war criminals to incompetent telephone operators. Hidden-camera reports, producers say, will occasionally be used in the broadcast...
...like the old days," laments Rand Morrison, senior broadcast producer on Public Eye and a 48 Hours veteran. "Now everyone's been on TV. It's not a lure. You'll call someone, and they'll say, 'You're the fifth person who's called me.' There's an astonishing level of sophistication too. People are in on the mechanism.

In return, Mother Teresa and her sisters delivered effusive encomiums in favor of the rich and infamous eager...
...covered Alaska's commercial fisheries for print and broadcast media for nearly a decade, I am troubled by your vivid portrayal of some of the favorite fish "entrees" that could soon disappear. In Alaska we have more salmon than we know what to do with. Annual statewide salmon catches usually hover at around 200 million fish. To make matters worse, you urge consumers to "help out" by eating just farm-raised salmon! Sending that message to readers serves only to cripple further an industry that has steadily been losing market share for its wild, free-roaming salmon to those that...
