...psalm. The writer then goes on to stick into my mouth an unpleasant sentence I never wrote (the author of that sentence is clearly designated in my piece as the Times Literary Supplement). But the extraordinary achievement was to quote Vidal's charges against me, in particular that my views are those of the founders of the Third Reich, which, were it so, would, among other things, impeach the professional resources of TIME magazine for not having discovered this signal piece of intelligence in the course of preparing a cover story on me.

By a ratio of more than five to one, Americans agree that newspapers and newsmagazines have given Kennedy fair treatment; seven to one they say television has. The approbation is qualified however: fewer than one out of three will go so far as to say the media in general have been "very fair" in their Kennedy coverage. Not surprisingly, Harris found that the groups that generally support Kennedy -youth, Easterners, blacks and women -are more critical of the press; those who do not-the elderly...
