The News From Disney World
Date: 08 October 1986
Walt Disney World did not purchase all the journalists who swarmed over the Florida amusement park last weekend. Some of the reporters covering the park's four-day 15th anniversary celebration were from news organizations that paid their own way. The public, however, could not have distinguished between the serious reporters and those who showed up only because Disney had offered free transportation, lodging, meals and entertainment. It appeared instead that the entire Fourth Estate was on the take.

EUROPE SHRUGS AT REPORTS OF NEWS DECEPTION
Date: 07 October 1986
By James M. Markham, Special To the New York Times

The Reagan Administration's reported resort to a policy of deception to throw Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi of Libya off balance has aroused little hostile press commentary and no perceptible protest among West European allies of the United States. While the campaign of deception has been front-page news in the United States, few Western European newspapers or magazines have given major attention to it, and a number of prominent ones have ignored it altogether. Among the latter are publications normally unfriendly to the Reagan Administration.

An oak tree was dedicated and a plaque was unveiled in Arlington National Cemetery today to honor the more than 200 war correspondents who have been killed while reporting to the American public on the far-flung battles of the last 100 years. Some died alongside soldiers in World War I and II. Others were hit by stray bullets in the Middle East, were killed by mines in Central America or simply disappeared while driving down roads in Cambodia. All ''have given their lives while pursuing the truth,'' said Steve Bell of ABC News, the master of ceremonies, who covered the Vietnam War.

REAGAN-LED PARTY SHIFT AIDING HOUSE HOPEFULS
Date: 07 October 1986
By E. J. Dionne Jr

President Reagan's continuing popularity is not transferring directly to Republican Congressional candidates, but the political sea change toward the Republican Party that Mr. Reagan set in motion in 1980 is clearly helping them in this fall's elections, The New York Times/CBS News Poll has found. A key factor in how well Republican candidates are doing, the survey indicated, is that many more voters think of themselves as Republicans now than did four years ago. The result is a narrow lead nationally of 43 percent to 39 percent for Democratic candidates for the House of Representatives. Such results, if they held up in November, would most likely produce only the smallest of shifts in the current partisan division when results in the 435 separate House races are totaled. The last time the party in control of the White House gained seats in the House of Representatives in an off-year election was 1934. The average off-year loss by the party in power in the last 100 years is 38 seats and since World War II, 30. In 1982 the Republicans lost 26 seats.
