...latest Hubbell client to surface is Time Warner (the parent company of TIME magazine). A company executive confirmed to TIME last week that the corporation employed Hubbell briefly as a consultant in the fall of 1994.

The company hired Hubbell after one of its outside lobbyists, longtime Democratic consultant Michael Berman, approached Hubbell about doing some legal work in the antitrust area. According to Berman, Hubbell was game, and so Berman then mentioned the idea to Tim Boggs, Time Warner's Washington representative...
...government may have a harder time building its case and assessing the damage done. Unlike Ames, Nicholson is pleading not guilty. For starters, attorney Shapiro wants to subpoena the tape of the lie-detector tests, which he says can be used to refute some of the CIA's claims.

Possible crimes being investigated range from an array of financial frauds...
...creative sessions to make sure the ads were defensible as "issues advocacy." The law calls for such spots to be created independently of the campaign--yet Morris, Penn, Squier and Knapp handled all the D.N.C. spots. "If the Republicans keep the Senate," said a consultant, "they're going to subpoena us. Our only defense is that Dole did it too." The Democrats' ads blanketed the country. But Dole never responded--and never recovered from the blows...
