TELEVISION REVIEW;Underbelly of the Presidency
Date: 07 March 1996
By Walter Goodman
Walter Goodman
So You Want to Be President?" starts out on a promisingly provocative trip. It begins with a visit to "opposition researchers," a k a the dirty tricks teams that dig into the doings of political candidates. Most of their findings, exhumed from public records, are pretty dry, but now and then these scholars earn their pay and make their employers' day with something juicy, like evidence of sexual hanky-panky. Particular attention is paid to Floyd G. Brown, who generally pursues Democrats and has been associated with the famous Willie Horton commercial and the Gennifer Flowers exhibition and is currently concentrating on Whitewater. He announces, "I'm proud of what I do."
Serb Move Angers Europe
Date: 07 March 1996

The European Union today sharply criticized a recent decision by Serbian authorities to take control of Belgrade's only independent television station, Studio B, and said further restraints on the news media would hurt future ties. A statement issued by the Foreign Ministry of Italy, which currently holds the European Union's rotating presidency, said the group was "gravely concerned" about the Belgrade Government decision to cancel the station's status as a private company.

As the nation's most powerful show-biz moguls posed for their V-chip photo op with President Clinton at the White House last Thursday, the opposite end of America's media food chain gathered at the Miyako Hotel in Japantown here. Some 650 representatives of the alternative print and electronic press, from Mother Jones to the Columbus (Ohio) Guardian to Dyke TV, had gathered for the first annual Media and Democracy Congress, and there wasn't a network suit in sight. "I feel like these are all the people I marched on the Pentagon with 20 years ago," said one fellow boomer -- though if my own fading memory serves, it was more like 30 years ago. Appropriately enough, Noam Chomsky's ruminations were available on CD downstairs by the Cyber Cafe, but it was a free Xeroxed handout that really explained why people from 32 states might come together and share a rancor once targeted at the military-industrial complex.
Business Travel;If you're headed to New York later in the year, there is hope for getting a hotel room.
Date: 06 March 1996

NEW YORK hotels were so filled late last year that many business travelers were forced to stay in the suburbs and exurbs. At a hotel industry reception last November, the president of one large chain told of nine business travelers from the Washington-Baltimore area who flew to New York that morning for a company meeting and had to fly back home that night because they could not get hotel rooms -- then had to turn around and do it again the next day. Those travelers might have saved time and money if they had known of the New York Peak Season Hotel Hot Line, which was offered for the first time from October through December, and will be offered the same time again this year.
COMPANY NEWS;AMERICAN GREETINGS AGAIN BIDS FOR GIBSON

The American Greetings Corporation said today that it had made another offer to buy Gibson Greetings Inc., this time for $18 a share, or a total of $292.9 million. American Greetings, the nation's No. 2 maker of greeting cards, said Gibson, the No. 3 card maker, had declined to meet with it to discuss the offer. Hallmark Cards Inc. is No. 1. Gibson spurned an earlier offer last July, citing antitrust complications. The two companies together would have more than 50 percent of the United States market. In July, Gibson, which is based in Cincinnati, had said that it might put itself up for sale after it lost market share to American Greetings and Hallmark, posted its first annual loss since going public in 1982 and lost several key executives. The shares of Gibson closed yesterday at $14.50, down 12.5 cents. American Greetings stock rose 37.5 cents, to $28.25.
