A DECADE OF CHANGE FOR BUSINESS NEWS ON TV
Date: 13 March 1986
By Thomas Morgan
Thomas Morgan
More than a decade ago, most analysis of business-news developments was reported in newspapers and magazines. The television industry, dependent on pictures to tell a story and hampered by a technological inability to portray business happenings quickly in a graphic and interesting manner, largely confined its business reporting to nightly readings of the Dow Jones industrial average, consumer price indexes and occasional consumer reports. ''With a few exceptions, business news on television was boring in the 70's, and television tended to kiss it off,'' said Jack Cafferty, host of WNBC/Channel 4's ''Strictly Business,'' a locally produced, half-hour, syndicated business news program on Saturdays at 7 P.M. ''People wouldn't watch someone reading economic news with a slide picture of the floor of the New York Stock Exchange in the background.'' Today, it's a different story. In recent years, such major economic developments as spiraling oil prices, housing problems and soaring inflation and interest rates have spurred public awareness and interest in business news. And broadcasters have begun expanding their business-news coverage and using the same attention-grabbing techniques they use in sports and general news reporting -livelier interviews, special investigative reports and snappy graphics - to attract this growing audience.

KOCH, IN TALK AT LAW SCHOOL, CRITICIZES NEWS COVERAGE OF CORRUPTION SCANDAL
Date: 14 March 1986

The question from the law student to Mayor Koch was brief and polite: If he knew back when he was in law school what he knows now, would he have gone into politics? The answer was a 14-minute mayoral monologue that was sometimes angry and emotional and that had less to do with the student's question than with the corruption scandal that has dominated the Mayor's third term. Talking to the roomful of New York Law School students at an otherwise routine appearance yesterday morning, Mr. Koch went further than ever before in criticizing news organizations for the way they have handled the corruption story. He blamed the organizations for tarnishing the reputations of some people who left his administration. He also complained about some questions on a New York Times/WCBS-TV News Poll. One moment he said, ''I want to make something very clear, I accept the poll as valid.'' The next he took issue with questions that ''bothered'' him.

NEWS SUMMARY: FRIDAY, MARCH 14, 1986
Date: 14 March 1986
International The President will oppose despots of the anti-Communist right as well as the pro-Soviet left, Mr. Reagan said in a policy statement set to be made public today. The new policy differs in emphasis from the one enunciated by Jeane J. Kirkpatrick, former chief American delegate to the United Nations, which held that ''traditional authoritarian'' Governments were ''less repressive,'' more susceptible to change and better for American interests than Marxist-style dictators were. [ Page A1, Column 1. ] Manila cited a Swiss bank account totaling $800 million held by Ferdinand E. Marcos, according to an official of the Government panel seeking to recover the former President's secret wealth. [ A1:4. ]

A FISCAL CONSERVATIVE HEADED FOR WORLD BANK: BARBER BENJAMIN CONABLE JR.

Robert Pear
When Barber B. Conable Jr. was approaching retirement in 1984, after 20 years in Congress, he was asked why he had decided to quit. ''I don't want to participate in a sense of personal decline,'' he said. ''I would like to quit while I can still be active. I would like to be useful after leaving Congress, something that is very hard to do if you are much older than I am.''

Speaking of the Knicks, there was a vivid illustration the other day of the wide gap between dreams and what has become reality. Bolstered largely by the drafting of Patrick Ewing last summer and the thought of his playing on the same front line with Bernard King and Bill Cartwright, the team's average road attendance this year is fourth-best in the league, at 12,753.

MOST IN POLL SAY CITY CORRUPTION IS WIDESPREAD AND HURTS SERVICES

Most New York City residents perceive corruption as being widespread in the city government and believe that it has a considerable effect on the quality of the services the city provides, according to a New York Times/WCBS-TV News Poll. A vast majority of those polled also said Mayor Koch should be held responsible for corruption around him, and more than half said they did not believe the Mayor's assertion that he was unaware that there was serious corruption in his administration. Half of those questioned said, however, that they believed that the people around the Mayor, rather than Mr. Koch himself, were in charge of what goes on in the city government. #65% Approval for Koch New Yorkers continue to view Mr. Koch himself as very honest, and approval of the overall job he is doing as Mayor, at 65 percent, remains near the highest levels he has attained in public polls, despite the municipal corruption scandal that has shaken his administration since January.

A ''sophisticated'' organization of cocaine distributors that included two New York City police officers and 13 other present and former city employees was broken up in a series of raids Wednesday night and yesterday, the authorities said. A total of 36 people were in custody, and the authorities said they were searching for 30 more. The organization had been distributing cocaine with a street value of about $20 million a month in the metropolitan area, according to Robert M. Stutman, the special agent in charge of the Federal Drug Enforcement Administration's New York field office.

YANKEES, WPIX IN BOTTOM OF 9th
Date: 14 March 1986
By Thomas Rogers

Among the things that have long distinguished New York from Podunk are Broadway, world-class restaurants and televised home-team baseball games that are always shown from first pitch to last, not joined in progress. Well, two out of three ain't bad. Less than a month from a season in which the Yankees are switching to 7:30 starts for home night games, a half-hour earlier than previously, the club and WPIX-TV are still arguing over what time the telecasts will begin. Channel 11 has nurtured a significant revenue-maker in its 7:30-to-8 P.M. news program and isn't eager to move it up 30 minutes to a slot where it would be competing against network news. A compromise seemed in the offing a couple of weeks ago, after a breakfast meeting between George Steinbrenner and Leavitt Pope, the station's president, but it now appears to have fallen apart. And WPIX, which has televised Yankee baseball for 35 years, insists that its position is frozen: If the Yanks don't give it some form of compensation, then 33 games - of a total of 100 to which the station has rights this season - will be joined in progress at 8 o'clock, wiping out perhaps the first inning and a half.

2 IN A SEX CASE MAY BE VICTIMS, BROWN U. SAYS
Date: 14 March 1986

Brown University officials said today that there were no plans to discipline students implicated in a prostitution ring, saying the university regarded the women as ''possible victims, not criminals.'' ''There are strong indications extortion or coercion were involved and that the women were not motivated to do this for the money,'' said Robert Reichley, vice president for university relations at Brown. He declined to specify what form the coercion might have taken. He said the two 21-year-old seniors who have been charged with loitering for prostitution, a misdemeanor, are still enrolled and that as far as he knew they were attending whatever classes they had scheduled today.
