...more like Today, as Weaver had envisioned it, than Today. There was news, of course, but not much. Catering to its largely female audience (66%, vs. 55% for Today and 47% for Morning), the show set out to provide women with advice and information they need to run a household-a kind of Family Circle of the air.

In the process, the deficit for the 1981 fiscal year that began in October could all too easily wind up swelling to $55 billion or even $60 billion instead of the $50 billion that is now projected, or the $27 billion that Rea gan is shooting for.
