Tragedy hits WWD? Hardly. A WWD reader with a memory for the morbid will doubtless recall that a Paris story last November was written by Marie-Antoinette Esterhazy. She too met an untimely end: "Marie-Antoinette caught cold and died last night," WWD announced...
...minimize the case's importance, deflect guilt and hide behind the shibboleth of national security. These factors at first inhibited the press. Now the urge is to print everything obtainable in the belief that self-censorship would be itself a kind of coverup. In this atmosphere, there will doubtless be some excesses.

He regularly assaults national institutions like Howard Cosell ("commits a public disturbance every time he opens his mouth"). But he also stalks such Main Street game as deer hunters ("revolting humanoids") and people who call up radio talk shows ("idiots...
