...prosecutor, the defendant and often the witnesses. In several states, like Florida, the press is presumed to have the right to televise trials without permission, though judges can bar cameras if they see a real risk of prejudice. Bundy and his lawyers have repeatedly objected, calling the trial a "media event" and warning of prejudice to jurors in other courts where Bundy must still stand trial. But Miami Judge Edward Cowart was unmoved. He told TIME: "Cameras haven't impacted procedures the way some felt they would. It's better to have photographers in the courtroom than running...
...nine-page memo informing its members of the new awards, the A.A.P. proposal committee said that once winners have been chosen, "they will be announced at an awards ceremony that is envisioned as a gala evening of entertainment, a celebration for the industry, and a news event for the media." Following their flashier big brothers and sisters in the movie business, the A.A.P. has established an "academy."

That is not such a bad idea for potentially earth-shattering deliberations...

It is designed, in the words of the catalogue, as "the last panel of the triptych" of exhibitions illustrating the relationships between Paris and three modernist capitals: New York (1977), Berlin (1978) and Moscow. The sheer size of the Soviet loan-some 2,000 works in all media, from paintings to agitprop posters, from architectural drawings to teacups and chess sets-put the center's director, Pontus Hulten, at a disadvantage in bargaining. The Russian side of the show is wholly chosen and catalogued by Soviet experts, whose essays (as one might expect) gloss over the brutal...
