Reporter Off Trump Beat
Date: 03 July 1991
The Wall Street Journal has reassigned the reporter who had been covering Donald J. Trump, acting to remove what a Journal spokesman described as "a perception problem" involving a possible conflict of interest for the reporter. The reporter, Neil Barsky, accepted three $1,000 tickets from representatives of Mr. Trump to the boxing match between Evander Holyfield, the heavyweight champion, and George Foreman in Atlantic City in April, which was sponsored by Mr. Trump. Mr. Barsky had received permission from his superior at the paper to take a ticket, but accepted two others for family members who accompanied him.

Topics of The Times; Take the Blinders Off Justice
Date: 03 July 1991
New York's Legislature is headed for adjournment with no apparent prospects for restoring television coverage to the state's court system. Even a short-term extension of a three-year experiment that expired May 31 has passed only the Assembly and is blocked in the Senate. That's ludicrous for a state with a rich tradition of public justice and a national name as a communications hub. The legislative hang-up has been caused by the insistence of Senator Christopher Mega, the Judiciary Committee chairman, on stripping trial judges of their authority to decide when a particular witness may not be photographed during trial testimony. Judges have not been accused of abusing their broad discretion, but Senator Mega wants each witness who is not a party to the case to have an absolute veto on the use of cameras to record his own testimony. This would foil any serious attempt at coherent camera coverage.

On My Mind; Is This Still News?
Date: 02 July 1991
By A. M. Rosenthal

There's no real news in this column except maybe that before tomorrow morning about 40,000 people will die who should have lived quite longer. These people are all less than 5 years old. The day after, about the same number of small people will die -- give or take a thousand or two. And the day after that, and so on and so on, all through the year. If you put it all together, and multiply 40,000 by 365, would that be news, maybe worth writing, or reading, a column?
