...slightest suggestion that the Vietnamese people might just possibly prefer the NLF to the rule of Marshal Ky and his cronies and to the wholesale destruction of their country. Such simplistic treatment of the Southeast Asian national liberation movements is paradoxical in a statement that condemns the mass media for "inducing the fears and stereotypes that inhibit rational thought."

Actually, the quality of the program was as mixed as its media. The lighting effects eventually became tiresome distractions; the electronic sounds some-times rambled and screeched.

You might wish to express your opinion on whether the AEC portion should...
...takes some 40 or 50 hours a week, but painting is his true love and he devotes his weekends to it. He works fast (most of the ninety or so paintings in this exhibit were done since June), but would welcome a more relaxed pace. Trained in all media, he makes use of whatever he gets his hands on--canvas, beaverboard, masonite, linoleum, oils, watercolors, acrylics...
