...least, unfortunate that big-city dailies with the organization and the money required to protect reporters covering integration in the South, do not bother to do so. The time-honored task of any newspaper worth the name is to report all the news--and "fit to print" should not be a criterion if it means that the national press deletes information which might prove embarrassing or distasteful to local, state, or federal governments...
Russian readers must have been mystified-if not shocked-at seeing the sanity of their leader challenged in print-even by an outsider. Both Pravda and Izvestia prefaced the Wechsler columns with statements disavowing their contents ("This article is of definite interest, although the editors cannot agree with some of its propositions").

Halfheartedly, Publisher Alexander Brook explained that they stand for THE HARD WAY'S THE BEST. In fact, they represent the classic cry of exasperated newsmen everywhere...
Hearst haunted the sets of Davies pictures, giving two dozen orders a minute to hapless directors; and after Norma Shearer managed to beat out his protégée for a part, Hearst told his editors from coast to coast never to mention Norma's name in print. With uncanny foresight, Hearst papers could be counted on for banner headlines such as MARION DAVIES' GREATEST FILM OPENS TONIGHT...
