realized one very special I

thing which both helped | make all-news radio succeed * and which challenges it today.

It is that all-news was bom here in the high exhilaration of the early 1960’s with John F. Kennedy and grew in years of nearly continuous national anguish' with the Cuban missile crisis, assassinations, Vietnam, Lyndon Johnson’s withdrawal, more Vietnam, Nixon, China and Watergate.

If Jimmy Carter means quieter times he also means people are recovering from a prolonged state of someting like national war nerves. It is better for the country if slower for the news daybook.

Reports of the death of allnews are premature. It simply presents a sharp new challenge to all-news broadcasters to adapt allnews radio to quieter times. It can be done.
