...able to turn on a dime, producing thoughtful, thoroughly reported stories on very little notice. But our quadrennial presidential-election issue demands deadline journalism on an altogether higher plane. The magazine is coming out a full four days earlier than usual -- yet we were determined not to sacrifice the in-depth research and forward-looking analysis that readers have come to expect. Part of the solution: squeeze the interval between final editing and distribution of the magazine from the normal 36 hours down...
...result of Wills' sojourns is this week's probing study of Clinton's roots. Wills, of course, is no stranger to the task of getting inside the mind of American politicians, having written six books on American Presidents as well as many in-depth articles on incumbents and would-bes.

In fact, he is letting interview segments run longer -- six to seven minutes, on average, compared with 4 1/2 to five minutes previously. "I think the audience would like more in-depth treatment of some issues," he says. "I hate cutting people off." His approach has had another, not incidental benefit: with longer segments the show runs one or two fewer pieces each day. That relieves some of the burden on the trimmed-down < staff and saves money as well. "You have to accept...
