THE PRESIDENT HAS SEEN
June 21, 1972
(Tues. nets, wires, columns)
The major stories of day:
ABC/CBS led w/what Chancellor called the "year's juiciest
political scandal" the DNC breakin Brien filing a
$1M damage suit against Comm. for Re-Election and note
of WH aide Hunt's link to 2 of accused. Film of Comm. to
Re-Elect on 2 nets and 'Brien on all nets saying WH itself
may well be involved in this cheap cloak and dagger doing.
ABC from Miami (nearly 6 min. lead) told of Dem. concern
over possible bugging of headquarters there.
In other political news, late closing of NY Polls and intricacies
of ballot likely to prevent any complete tabluation of what all
expect to be a substantial McG victory. McG/Muskie/HHH -
the latter w/by far the warmest reception - on film on all
nets at Mayor's Conf as they recited what ABC's Kaplow called
the standard pledge of allegiance on revenue sharing. ABC
also w/film of McG/HHH differences which were similarly
noted by CBS tho only McG on film presenting his views.
NBC led w/report covered by CBS w/film: The return home of
the last of the 112 US combat brigades which were in VN in
'68. NBC followed w/highly negative report on buildup in
Thailand while CBS gave some attention to the combat GIs
staying in VN who don't appreciate US public's lack of recognition
of their continuing role.
Laird's testimony only covered by NBC as he said Soviets will
begin MIRV testing earlier than anticipated and he said he
couldn't support SALT pact w/out B- 1 and Trident. Brinkley's
sarcastic response followed.
CBS w/some of 1st film of survivors of slaughter in Burundi
where 200, 000 may have died in a tragic and savage conflict
given little attention in US press.
