...recognition of the potential of art for political statement was only one aspect of the Dadaists' way of looking at art. In seeking to revivify art the Dadaists created an aesthetic of aggression, art that screamed at the viewer. Chaotic images such as Max Ernst's paining "Explosion" and his "Massacre of the Innocents," in which figures fell toward the edges of the paper, are evidence of a new, outer-directed approach to composition...

Both Morning and Today are part of their networks' news divisions, a connection their staffs note with some pride; Good Morning America is a production of ABC's entertainment division, which seems to give that show's staff something of an inferiority complex.

...commercial called The Feminist. It is one of a series of six Klein ads that, besides selling a lot of $50 pants, are bringing a message to the media: vulgarity in advertising is on the rise, and bottoms are big business. Responding to an avalanche of viewer complaints, NBC in New York City last week banned The Feminist, which is the most suggestive in the series. Earlier CBS and ABC affiliates in Los Angeles and New England rejected some of the other commercials as well. The stations have agreed to air a few of the less objectionable spots after...
