What's New

THERE IS CONTROVERSY ABOUT THE nature of news. People think the media are too negative or too cynical or too opinionated. That the loudest of these complaints come from the most negative, cynical and opinionated talkers on radio does not disprove them. They are in fact chronic complaints and not now the most serious heard about the news business. The public, as measured by opinion polls, does not so much object to "bad" news as it wants a balanced diet, with more "good" news. The public, as measured by its reading habits, wants considerably less news of every kind. And the public, as measured by television ratings, favors trashy gossip about the rich and famous, "magazine" exposes of skulduggery and hourly updates about a certain murder trial.

It has not quite rivaled the O. J. Simpson trial for courtroom drama, but after only a few days the extradition case in New Jersey of a former Mexican prosecutor has created a media frenzy of its own on Mexico's side of the border. Newspapers here gasped at the attempt -- unsuccessful -- by lawyers for the defendant, Mario Ruiz Massieu, to subpoena former President Carlos Salinas de Gortari. The lawyers wanted the former President to testify about the political murder investigation that Mr. Ruiz Massieu is accused of covering up during the Salinas administration.

Benefits of TV's Failure To Cover New Jersey Well
Date: 18 June 1995
To the Editor: Just because events in New Jersey receive little coverage by television news programs based in New York doesn't mean that New Jerseyans who want to stay informed are out of luck ("No News, Most of the Time," June 4). NJN News covers the state as well as a half-hour a day allows, and there are several quality newspapers that do present salient facts and provide forums for debating issues. That the networks don't cover events pertinent to New Jerseyans isn't surprising; they rarely cover events pertinent to New Yorkers. Unless they have recently been indicted, New York legislators are unknown to those who rely solely on network news.
