The Press Be Hanged! Britain's Judges Prefer Order in the Court
Date: 06 October 1995
By John Darnton

In a move that contrasts markedly with the way the court handled the news media in the O. J. Simpson trial, a judge here has thrown out an assault case and threatened editors of eight newspapers with contempt charges because of pretrial publicity. Judge Roger Sanders called newspaper coverage "unfair, outrageous and oppressive" in throwing out the case on Wednesday and said it had damaged the rights of the defendant, Geoffrey Knights, to a fair trial. Mr. Knights, a businessman who is often the subject of tabloid newspaper articles, was facing assault charges from an altercation with the driver of a cab carrying a soap opera star he has been dating for seven years.

THE POPE'S VISIT: THE PRESS;Reporters Strain to See Big Picture, Vital Detail
Date: 05 October 1995

A reporter from a small Catholic newspaper worried that his photo ID so little resembled him that he would be barred from papal events. A photographer from Bologna, Italy, demanded credentials to the choice picture-taking areas not allowed by her pass. A columnist for The Toronto Star strongly suggested posting notices to lay out the tight logistics of covering events for which reporters are required to arrive three hours or more in advance. "Tell us clearly what you can and can't cover," said Stephen Handelman, the Toronto columnist. "That's the sort of stuff we need to know."

THE POPE'S VISIT: MEDIA WATCH;Simple Message Captivates Hard-Nosed Journalists
Date: 06 October 1995

The papal visit has been a disorienting spectacle, and not only because so much media attention is suddenly being devoted to someone without a strong opinion on O. J. Simpson. Even more miraculous has been the Pope's conversion of New York's journalists. The national impact of Pope John Paul II's visit has been diluted by competing stories, since Hurricane Opal and the continuing Simpson story have pushed the papal visit from the top of the network newscasts. But in New York he has been an overwhelming presence on television screens and in newspapers. No detail is too small, from the changing color of security stickers to the exact definition of an antiphon.

The AMR Corporation said yesterday that it had reached a tentative contract agreement last week with baggage handlers, who voted down a six-year contract in late September. The contract must be ratified by about 14,000 baggage handlers and ramp workers, who voted against the contract because of concerns about seniority. The ratification vote is scheduled for later this month. The contract is part of a plan by AMR to cut $1 billion in expenses. The remaining 13,000 Transport Workers Union members ratified the contract. "We did reach what we felt was a satisfactory conclusion," said Ed Koziatek, chief negotiator for the Transport Workers Union.
