And to compete in the glitzy arena of The Cosby Show and Dallas, stars are a must. Other entertainment elements are creeping into these shows as well. On Prime Time Live, Sawyer and Donaldson will be joined by an unusual (for a news show) featured player: a live studio audience. Both Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow and the revamped West 57th will feature dramatized "re-creations" of events, a dubious enterprise...
