...York's 25-member city council was badgered into an unprecedented special session this week because of the insistent door-pounding of a short (5 ft. 7½in.), scurrying radio-TV reporter who feels there is nothing wrong with electronic journalism that a lot of shoe-leather reporting cannot cure...
...correspondents at the trial (the other: U.P.'s Ed Korry). Back in the U.S., Pressman got a job as a City Hall reporter for the New York World-Telegram, then, 2½ years ago, joined NBC's Manhattan station WRCA to become its first roving radio-TV reporter. "I've covered everything from the Andrea Doria sinking to the catching of a boa constrictor in a Bronx supermarket," says Pressman, who packs a 20-lb. tape recorder as habitually as a city room legman packs a batch of copy paper.

Said a perturbed Sevareid: "What is analysis and what is opinion or editorializing? Possibly the differences can never be resolved."

At the same time the Hauges were reaping a paper harvest of yen, Japanese families, hit with postwar taxes, were living...
Like most movie exposes, The Great Man makes a point which is not particularly surprising: in the radio-tv business anything, even honesty, goes--as long as it sells the sponsor's product. But it tells its small story with economy and skill. When Herb Fuller, who dispenses sermons, homey philosophy, and slightly off-color stories on a daily program, kills himself in an auto wreck, a young radio reporter is tabbed as his replacement. The reporter's first assignment, on which the future of his career depends, is to prepare a memorial show about the deceased great...
