...movie asks if Bergman can trust the insular and somber Wigand, who says that Brown & Williamson, the tobacco company where he once worked as chief of research, knowingly added cancer-causing chemicals to its products. Can Wigand trust Bergman, who keeps pushing him to go public with his story, though it cost him his severance pay, his peace of mind and his marriage? Can Bergman trust Wallace? And can anybody trust 60 Minutes, the most lustrous of TV newsmagazines, if it runs when Big Tobacco huffs and puffs at its door...
Clayson, 32, has a different set of demands to get used to now though. Tapped this summer as Bryant Gumbel's co-host on CBS's The Early Show, which makes its debut next Monday, the former ABC News reporter will be a key element--perhaps the key element--in her network's attempt to grab at the groaning breakfast buffet of advertising dollars that is morning television...

Lilith Fair is over, my friend. It's safe for the bad boys to come out and play...
...auto accident [DISPATCH, Oct. 11]. But some of his comments disturbed me, as I'm sure they did other readers. After having his life saved, Hughes said, "Jesus must have been busy...he didn't show." That offends me. I am Hindu, and faith is deeply rooted in me. Though this was not a fairy-tale ending or a religious experience for Hughes, someone holds this life that we all cherish. You may call him Christ, Allah, Vishnu or Bob, for that matter, but Hughes shouldn't think he was saved because of an astute Aborigine or some glitch...
