CUOMO SEES POLITICAL NEWS AS OVER SIMPLIFIED
Date: 11 April 1985
By Maurice Carroll

News coverage of politics and the Washington political world is overly dependent upon labels, Governor Cuomo of New York said here today. ''To be honest, it's a little disorienting to come here as Governor and find that we're back in the land of capsule truths, where perceptions rule over realities,'' Mr. Cuomo told the convention of the American Society of Newspaper Editors. Mr. Cuomo offered the familiar lament that complex political and governmental realities were oversimplified into 28 seconds on television, and he blended that lament with a description of the way the budget battle between Congress and the White House was being reported.

Investigative reporting, variously characterized as muckraking, sensationalism and exposing wrongdoing, has become a bit more risky. That was the import of a 2-to-1 decision by a Federal appeals court panel reinstating a jury verdict that The Washington Post had libeled the president of the Mobil Oil Corporation in a 1979 article. The article said that William P. Tavoulareas, then Mobil's president, had ''set up his son'' in business in a shipping company that had dealings with Mobil. In reaching this conclusion, the court included a novel holding that a newspaper's general orientation toward ''hard-hitting investigative stories'' could, together with other evidence, support an inference that it was inclined to publish reckless falsehoods.

A politician, an academic and a journalist, all black, today told the nation's newspaper editors that they were not reporting vital aspects of the black experience in the United States, especially what were described as damaging changes in civil rights policies by the Reagan Administration. ''For the first time in 25 years, there is an Administration hostile to aspirations of racial equality,'' Julian Bond, a Georgia State Senator, told the members of the American Society of Newspaper Editors, whose members represent most of the nation's daily papers. They are here for their annual convention. ''It's a radical, radical, radical, radical shift, and it's a frightening story,'' Mr. Bond said, adding that the ''public has no idea'' that it had happened.
