...faith and told voters he feels a lump in his throat every time he hears the national anthem. It was not enough. Nonetheless, Rodebush looked like a liberal in Michigan's mostly rural Fourth Congressional District, which had three times elected David Stockman, now the President's program-slashing budget director. In fact, Stockman's own choice, John L. Globensky, his former campaign manager and a similarly obdurate conservative, was rejected by voters in the March 24 primary. The man who beat him, and who last week swamped Rodebush by 3 to 1 in a special election...
...television journalism that the dangers of the star system become most visible. Television frequently has trouble distinguishing between news and show biz. Last week a CBS station in Chicago got into an unseemly row by criticizing the ABC network's 20/20 program and Reporter Geraldo Rivera's use of the "ambush interview"-surprising a journalistic target on the street, with cameras turning.

At the University of Virginia's Darden Graduate School of Business Administration, which has perhaps the best M.B.A. program in the South, such questions can arise unexpectedly in one of Associate Professor William Zierden's classes on organizational behavior. The problem: a conflict between an aggressive supervisor and a truculent employee. Should the supervisor be fired, or the employee? Or what should be done...
