...Telegraph's demise involved Bertram Powers and his powerful Local 6 of the Typographical Union. Powers had called the strike, he said, because the parent organization, Triangle Publications, had refused to submit to arbitration the layoff last winter of 20 of the paper's 120 printers. Stewart Hooker, publisher of the Telegraph and its sister sheet, the Daily Racing Form, argued that the printers still had a year to go on their contract, and anyway the 20 who had been laid off were back on the job before the strike was called.

...Cabinet appointees of the twisted coverage to come. As Keogh perceives it, those fears proved more than justified. He exempts some publications and individuals from criticism, such as U.S. News & World Report, FORTUNE, the Chicago Tribune and the New York Daily News, Columnists Max Lerner and Joseph and Stewart Alsop, NBC's Herbert Kaplow and ABC's Howard K.

Hearing this, the two philanthropists were outraged and denied the rumor. McGovern himself vehemently denied the claim, and Mankiewicz called the rumor "scandalous." Even Dick Stewart, in Muskie's press room, said that no one in the Muskie office had any knowledge of the letters; at the same time no one on Muskie's staff would either confirm nor deny that they had leaked the story. The leak exemplified the most vile kind of political ploy...
