...does seem, as your Mr. Glassman would have it, that the Columbia protestors are getting poor press coverage, and in the certitude of his position he becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. CBS News certainly did cover the affair on the night of May 1, and their extended newsreel showed just how sorry a situation there be: arguments obviously intended to go nowhere between righteous long-haired demonstrators and somewhat more self-consciously righteous short-haired jocks, with one beleaguered cop for good measure, pointing out in his New York accent that "when you tell someone ta move, he's sposta...
Newsweek put them on its cover, and covertly supported them in its special section story. Time published a special essay on student power and concluded that Universities should hurry to include students in the important decisions that affect them.

It took only six months to ensure the re-election of a troubled President who at that stage thought himself a failure, and who now is regarded by most as our greatest American...
...Picturing Mr. Dubcek with Jan Hus on your cover [April 5] is as inspiring as the reformation taking place in Czechoslovakia today. For the first time in 20 years, basic freedoms can now be enjoyed by all Czechoslovaks, in an atmosphere of free will and self-expression, without fear of persecution. Bravo! to Mr. Dubcek, his ministers, and aides for succeeding in placing the foundation stones for the New Republic. And hats off to TIME for a concise account of events...
