...idea for USA Today, which now occupies 160,000 sq. ft. of a Rosslyn, Va., office tower overlooking the capital's monuments, was nurtured about three years ago in a bungalow mere blocks away from Neuharth's home in Cocoa Beach, Fla.; the Gannett team worked behind windows coated with reflective paper to discourage the curious. By April 1981 the plan had progressed to prototype issues, which were mailed to public figures, journalists and financial analysts for comment. Some of the reaction was pungent. Publisher Joe Murray of the Pulitzer-prizewinning Lufkin, Texas, News returned his dummy issue...
Time sharing allows people to beat the high cost of vacations in $100-a-night resort hotels.

He remained silent as the first ugly details of Belushi's .death drifted into print, and finally issued only a terse written announcement of his findings: "The deceased died of an overdose due to intravenous injections of heroin and cocaine. Both cocaine and heroin were found on the premises...
Police reported that Belushi's physical trainer had arrived at the hotel early Friday afternoon and found the actor curled naked and unconscious on his bungalow bed. A hotel security guard attempted mouth-to-mouth resuscitation without success. By the time the corpse, covered with a brown blanket, was removed from the hotel, all elements of a Hollywood creep show were in place: stories of a mysterious woman in Belushi's room early that morning; rumors of the star's traveling with a cocaine crowd; paparazzi shouting and shoving and climbing over police cars to catch...
