...What is really disturbing," Inez Robb went on, "is the discovery that the [U.S.], despite free public education and a high literacy rate, contains so many morons who will support these gamey magazines. Teenagers are abandoning comic books in favor of this exposé tripe."

Steele. who in 1949 won several prizes for his series on the five-percenter scandals, was frequently mentioned as the successor to the late Bert Andrews to head the Trib's Washington bureau.
