...networks, as for the military, this is a costly war--not just in equipment but potentially in hundreds of millions of dollars of forgone advertising. When it came to choosing between news and dollars, the networks went with their strength. NBC stuck with a Friends rerun on Thursday even after the ground war had begun, while CBS aired NCAA basketball. ABC and Fox, whose regular Thursday programming usually gets trounced, went with the war. Friends won. On cable, CNN--whose Gulf War I glory days are an increasingly misty memory--hoped its breaking-news reputation would help it unseat...
...national pastime. On Thursday Fox will air a new prime-time special that will include Jackson's own footage of the fateful interviews with British journalist MARTIN BASHIR. (Bashir reportedly praises Jackson's parenting skills: "Your relationship with your kids is spectacular.") Meanwhile, on Monday night ABC will rerun the show that started it all, and NBC will show a special two-hour all-Jackson Dateline. Only CBS will stick to the relative moral high ground with such wholesome fare as 48 Hours Investigates, which will bring you an interview with a cosmetics heir who is on trial for date...

Accusing the U.S. of needless "impatience," French Foreign Minister Dominique...
...agreement, and on a program to stimulate an economy mired in its worst recession in 50 years. Sharon is campaigning on the basis of continuity of his tough policies against the Palestinian uprising and postponing political negotiations until after it has been suppressed. In many ways, it's a rerun of the contest between Sharon and his predecessor, Ehud Barak - and two years later, Sharon is once again the runaway favorite to carry the day despite (or, perhaps because of) the continuing security crisis and its social and economic costs...
...wasn't a rerun of that '80s show. but the TV scene forced Mike Taylor, the Republican candidate in the Montana Senate election, to pull out of the race last week. He claimed an ad sponsored by Democrats tarnished his reputation by suggesting he was gay. The ad shows an early-'80s Taylor, clad in a leisure suit that exposed his chest and gold chains, applying makeup to a Tom Selleck look-alike. Taylor ran a hair-care school for 10 years through 1988, and the clip is from Beauty Corner, a television show he hosted. Democrats said his weak...
