The Newsday team -sometimes called "Greene's Berets" -has up to now confined itself to local targets on Long Island, but last week it considerably enlarged its scope by taking on, though in a polite and peripheral way, the most distinguished target in the country: the President of the U.S. The team's disclosures about an unusually profitable sale of some Nixon-held stocks is but a small part of an encyclopedic-indeed, numbing -70,000-word, six-part report that deals exhaustively with the Florida real estate business.

Telephoning TV viewers after a newscast, Andrew Stern, a former ABC News staffer now on the journalism faculty of the University of California at Berkeley, found that 51% of those who had listened could not recall even one of the show's 19 items. Among all those called, the average memory rate was one item. (The calls were made over a period ranging from immediately after the show's sign-off to 3½ hours later.) Not surprisingly, the lead story was the most remembered. Far and away the most quickly forgotten material was the Eric Sevareid...
