...Republican, I feel you insult the intelligence of your readers by your laudatory, transparently one-sided, and gossipy story on Senator Nixon [TIME, Aug. 25].

...cockney English, not French at all. From London Zsa Zsa replied: "It's much easier to get a million dollars out of a rich husband than it is out of another actress." At week's end, to the entire satisfaction of her pressagent, Corinne recalled another galling insult: "Zsa Zsa said once that I had no breasts. Well, any time she feds like making a contest out of it, I'm ready...
