MEDIA REVIEW
September 23, 1972
Clear RN night on the nets w/Laredo leading one and the good CPI news favorably
leading the other 2. Excellent film on all from Texas. McG came off strong in
his response to the Veep on 2 nets before his best crowd of week (7, 000) but his
bussing charge was on but one show. Other McG problems on nets: Columbus,
Ohio survey no gain there, said ABC. HKSmith found him out of tune w/
public on issues, and Chancellor-Valeriani failed to see much progress for McG.
Hard to see how we could have had a better night on nets.
CPI didn't get the good ride in 5 ams seen as it did on nets, but it favorably led
Times and was straight to positive on p.1 of Post w/Sun's #4 story (behind 2 local
ones and Brandt): "Inflation Slows Sharply. 11 However food costs increase are
played up in Sun, housing rise is #3 Inquirer story and News treated it as just
another increase.
"RN Condemns 'Permissive' Judges; McG Calls Him Cynical on Busing" is
twinned #2 story in Times w/photos of both in best play for either. Bottom of
p. 1 in Sun is 4 column photo of RNs and JBCs at ranch over story: "RN Says
Judges Hinder Drug War. 11 Next to this is "McG Rebuts Agnew Disloyalty Hint. 11
Sun's Clymer says narcotics issues has been almost daily battleground between
RN/McG.
In NYNews Shriver visit there gets top attention w/mixed story on political page
(7) below which is: "RN: Judges 'Weak Link' in Dope War. 11 Good motocade
shot captioned "Seemingly riding the crest of popularity. 11 At bottom of page:
''McG Blasts Agnew Over Slur" and "Spiro Scorns Retreat from US World Role. 11
Inquirer w/political stories on p. 2 w/3 column head leading: "RN Accuses
Judges of Leniency On Pushers. 11 Single col. "McG Raps RN on Busing" is next
to photo of McG "overshadowed by a sign of RN. 11 Can't complain there.
Post w/political stories at bottom of p.1 again as in Sun the candidates are
twinned but we get the p.1 photo, here w/RN playing piano w/Happy Birthday.
''McG takes on Busing" is favorable account of McG's Detroit remarks and runs
next to generally sympathetic report on McG's problems in giving the public a
full understanding of him. Story on "Pres. Takes Campaign to Texas" mentions
crowd of "36, 000 happy persons. 11
Shriver's tamale dinner gets some inside coverage -- "unfaxed by millionaires"
and beside attention given VP by McG response to him, there is seen "Old Agnew
Resurfaces to attack McG" seen as personal attack. Sun sees stepped-up
Agnew rhetoric as result of bored audiences in 1st three days.
Teacher strike (DC/Philly), veto of Marriott Park in Md. and drug pusher arrest
are leads in 4 papers other than Times which reflect more muted attention given
politics on today's press. CPI and RN w/good heads getting out criticism of
