...colleagues at WLWT, they occasionally anchored together. But when they shared the stage last week at a forum sponsored by the AFL-CIO, they sat at opposite ends of a 15-ft.-long table. The amenities of the TV station were gone. The candidates had to speak above the whine of the air conditioner; the microphones squealed...
