...Time and Newsweek last month captured "the mood of the nation" as they presented their version of the state of the "nightmare" that is welfare. The underlying assumption seems to be that people consider welfare more of a nightmare for those not on welfare than for those...
...crash took the lives of ten men, including several of Tri's aides and Newsweek Correspondent François Sully (see THE PRESS). According to an official government account, there was a mechanical failure that set off an explosion aboard the craft while it was 100 feet in the air.
