THE 1992 CAMPAIGN: Media; In Manchester, the Charge Is Mellow Journalism

Date: 30 January 1992

So far this campaign, all the Presidential candidates have resisted the traditional temptation to stand outside The Union Leader building and denounce its publisher as an irresponsible liar. But the state's largest and most opinionated newspaper has had to confront even more troubling charges. They were summarized in The Boston Globe's recent headline: "Mellowed Union Leader loses some influence on primary." At The Union Leader they are not sure which is more repugant -- losing influence or becoming mellow -- and the paper has moved quickly to dispel both notions. It is running advertisements that compare its circulation with The Globe's in New Hampshire (99,000 versus 61,000 on Sundays, 72,000 versus 30,000 daily) and conclude, "The Globe is right to be worried about influence."

It is still early in the Presidential campaign, as political analysts have repeatedly determined, but the press coverage is beginning to take a familiar shape. In fact, this week there were two events on national television that could ultimately qualify as official defining moments. The first, of course, was when Gov. Bill Clinton of Arkansas went on "60 Minutes" to make what was probably the most public confession in the history of marriage problems. The next came Tuesday night when Mr. Clinton's confession was analyzed -- along with questions on the economy and President Bush's understanding of the middle class -- by what was probably the largest biased sample in the history of instant polling.
