While upscale outlets like the New York Times and The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer cover the budget battles in Washington and the strife in Bosnia, more mass-audience-friendly publications and TV shows dig for details on Liz Taylor's health and Princess Di's divorce.

"It's more than just divorce from the husband," explains Manhattan lawyer Raoul Felder, whose clients have included Mrs. Martin Scorsese, Mrs. Huntington Hartford and Mrs. Mike Tyson, and who is currently representing the seventh Mr. Elizabeth Taylor, Larry Fortensky.
