...Daily News has begun hiring consultants, such as James Dunn, a former circulation staffer on the World Journal Tribune, and Peter Palazzo, who redesigned the Sunday Herald Tribune before it folded. Palazzo worked on an afternoon format for the News for weeks. "My work is classified," says Palazzo. "At this delicate stage I shouldn't say any more...
...informal and scornful of organization charts-"We all work together," he says, "and when I'm in trouble I ask somebody, and when I'm not I don't"-Wriston helped initiate many of First National City's innovations. It was he who, with another staffer, "invented" the negotiable certificates of deposit in 1961.

At any rate, SNCC workers have from time to time lashed out at the notion of a white-dominated newspaper for Negroes. As one SNCC staffer put it, "Man, it's just one more white man tryin' to tell me what to think." SNCC seriously discussed at one point organizing a boycott of the Courier. The idea apparently was forgotten by the time of last year's elections, when SNCC instead bought advertising space...
