NEWS SUMMARY
November 4, 1972
(Fri. nets, wires, columns)
The major stories of the day:
Politics led the way on all nets w/RN in Chicago leading ABC/CBS
and following McG lead on NBC. Hecklers given film but RN
continued unphased thru remarks and he was clearly heard and
warmly received on ABC/NBC in promising peace w/honor and
asking for chance to keep on building structure for peace. CBS
used Chicago remarks on need for civility, and continued w/film
of RN in Nixon Country as he gave high praise to Bartlett.
McG said by ABC/NBC to have seen RN's Thurs. speech as his
big break and his own speech is expected to decry the alleged
perpetuating of a hoax by the Pres. in deceiving public on peace
hopes. (In speech, McG charged RN has betrayed US hopes
"cruel political deception" and won't end war.) Film of McG
before clergy on all nets seeing no early peace and Shriver on
ABC/NBC rapping US support of Thieu. He and his staff said by
ABC to be pessimistic re: Tues but his ebullience continued
NBC was only one to note there was "talk" of a "rude" statement
by McG.
VP on ABC/NBC film sharply hitting McG for the most meddling
in foreign policy by any WH candidate in history. NBC noted irony
in the VP's having to face the issue of whether it's proper to disrupt
the VP in a campaign where he has tried to be non-controversial.

and negative clip from 1701 as efforts to bar photographers were
made as fund list was released. ABC/CBS outlined top RN
