L.B.J. had badly mispronounced his name...
Significant Silence. In a 226-page report based on a study of crime reporting in cities from Newark to San Francisco, the committee concludes that the "preponderance of potentially prejudicial material" emanates from lawyers and law-enforcement agencies between arrest and trial. Wherever police and prosecutors have stopped talking, there has been a "significant decline" in overblown news stories-without any impairment of the vital role of the press in exposing crime and prodding lax law enforcement...
