RE:
CLIPPING REPORT
Attached are 56 clippings broken out as follows:
4 August 25, 28, and 29 releases
34 September 25 release
15 October 11 release
3 November 23 release
On the whole, results from the September and October releases were
rather poor, with September pulling 46 clippings with a circulation
of 2,442,519, and October pulling 21 clippings with a circulation of
2,267,783. I believe these poor results can be attributed to the fact
that we were hitting the same story as we did in the August releases
but with a slightly different slant; evidently, the papers didn't buy
it.
Initial telephone responses from the wire services and other "interested"
people concerning Meany's follies in Florida has been good, and clips on
that story are just starting to be received.
It is apparent that our stories concerning the union leaders being out
of step with their rank and file have had repercussions in the committee
rooms of organized labor. A story by one Dwane Emme of Press Associates,
Inc., a labor news service, accusing ORC of being, among other things, a
mouth piece for the Administration as well as ultra right wing conserva-
tive groups, etc., has appeared in various union publications -- among
them the St. Louis Tribune; the Cincinnati Brewery Worker; and the
Lafayette, Indiana, Printers and Allied Trades Journal. At least it's
nice to know that George and the boys are reading our stuff.
As a point of information, our political material has appeared in 518
papers in 47 states. If you have any questions, please advise.
