...quality, resources and sheer volume of output, the new star on the right is the Media Research Center, an Alexandria, Va., organization founded in 1987 by L. Brent Bozell III, former president of the National Conservative Political Action Committee. In addition to a monthly newsletter, MediaWatch, and the reference book And That's the Way It Isn't: A Reference Guide to Media Bias, the center also publishes TV, etc., a guide to left-wing influences in the entertainment business. Topics range from the plight of devout Christian actors forced to go undercover in atheistic Hollywood to the "radical environmentalist...
...depth of 12 in., approximately 325,000 gal. That is enough to fulfill the needs of a family of four or five people for one year.) A 1944 treaty guaranteed an additional 1.5 million acre-feet to Mexico. All fine and dandy, except for one thing: the Colorado's output was grossly overestimated. Instead of the 16.9 million acre-feet estimated to be there for the dividing, the river has been flowing at a rate of only 14.9 million; during the present drought, that figure has dropped to about 9 million acre- feet a year...
...billion to $1 billion. South Africa currently suffers a net capital outflow of about $2 billion a year; money needed to build up the country's industry has to be sent abroad instead to repay foreign loans. Partly in consequence, the once booming economy has stagnated.

Predictions that the sanctions would hurt black workers most have come true. Black unemployment is estimated...
...republics, Slovenia seems the best poised to make a success of independence. Unlike Croatia, which contends with a militant Serbian minority, Slovenia is ethnically homogeneous. Internally it borders only Croatia. And Slovenia's economy shows a potential for robustness: although output shrank 9.6% last year, per capita production is on a par with the poorest members of the European Community. Still, foreign assistance is needed, so Slovenia had proceeded cautiously in order not to alienate potential donors...
...painful transition from communism to capitalism, Czechoslovakia is learning how hard it is to shut down such an important industry. As many as 80,000 jobs, the bulk of them in the restive and depressed region of Slovakia, depend on it. The federal government has pledged to cut output to 25% of 1988 levels by 1993, but already Slovak politicians have slowed down that timetable to stave off mass unemployment. Last month federal Prime Minister Marian Calfa took a scolding from his Israeli counterpart, Yitzhak Shamir, over a still pending agreement to sell 100 T-72 tanks to Syria...
