RUSSIAN ECONOMY BEARS GOOD NEWS

Invited as the extra man at the annual meeting of leaders of the Group of Seven major industrial nations, President Boris N. Yeltsin will come bearing news that Russia's wrenching economic transformation has made notable progress since a Western aid package was assembled three months ago in Tokyo. Inflation, which was running as high as 30 percent a month last winter and looked as if it might be hurtling toward the hyperinflation rate of 50 percent, has cooled to less than 20 percent, and Finance Minister Boris G. Fyodorov predicted that the figure could fall below 15 percent in the near future.
Seattle Times Places a Ban On Tobacco Advertisements

The Seattle Times, a dominant newspaper in the Northwest, has added its name to the short list of American newspapers that refuse advertisements from tobacco companies. The decision puts the newspaper firmly on the antismoking side of a long-running debate in American journalism. Most American newspaper publishers have argued that their duty to assure a free flow of information requires that they adopt as few restrictions as possible on the advertising of legal products. 'Almost No Redeeming Value' Critics have said that newspapers are concerned most about the loss of revenues. Frank Blethen, publisher of The Seattle Times, said the issue was a matter of conscience. "Just as we refuse advertising for legal products such as handguns, escort services and X-rated movies," Mr. Blethen said, "we have concluded that tobacco advertising has almost no redeeming value."
THE MEDIA BUSINESS: Press; The Baby Bells Are Finding an Unlikely Ally in the Information-Services War: Newspapers.

FOR most of the decade since the Baby Bell companies were born, newspaper companies have been fearing them -- and fighting them. The newspapers have argued that the Bells, the seven regional telephone companies created in the big A.T.& T. antitrust case, should be barred from selling information services over telephone lines -- everything from news updates to beauty tips and race results. Telephone information services that were owned by the Baby Bells would unfairly compete with newspapers, the newspapers said, because the telephone companies controlled the conduit. If they were not stopped, the newspapers said, the monopoly telephone companies would damage the newspapers.
Horror Stories

You may already have forgotten The Great Pepsi Scare of 1993. It raged out of control for less than a week, though it did leave whole states and several major news organizations terrorized in its wake. The facts, if they can be called that, were these. On June 10, an elderly Tacoma, Wash., couple, Earl (Tex) and Mary Triplett, said a syringe had turned up in their can of Diet Pepsi. Within days, dozens of other syringe sightings were reported by Pepsi drinkers -- the very health-conscious drinkers of Diet Pepsi in particular -- in 23 states. Soon all three network evening news programs led with the crisis. Jay Leno's monologue likened President Clinton's inoculation program to "the Pepsi challenge" while Ted Koppel countered with a Pepsi "Nightline." A big-eyed 9-year-old boy in the Bronx who said his gum had been pricked by a hypodermic needle posed with the accused Pepsi bottle in The New York Post. USA Today published a front-page map showing the tainted Pepsi states in red, should readers wish to reroute their vacations.
Ending Abuse by Priests
Date: 04 July 1993
I will not knowingly permit a single act of abuse to be covered up or excused, and I will involve myself in the process of healing any wounds that have been opened. With these words, John Cardinal O'Connor, the Archbishop of New York, released a detailed plan for dealing with the cases of sexual abuse by priests that have rocked the Roman Catholic Church for nearly a decade.

It was a disaster waiting to happen. For a region already mired deep in recession, the Government's plan to aggressively shut down military bases seemed certain to shower more economic distress on New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. But by Friday, when President Clinton said he would support the recommendations of a Presidential commission to close 35 major bases across the nation, and sharply scale back others, some of the gloom in the New York region had begun to lift.
