When Good News Was No Bad News

Date: 19 July 1992

The Dallas Morning News ran a front-page photograph of a homeless man sprawled across a subway grating. The Sunday Oklahoman told how one of its reporters had his wallet stolen. Dave Barry, a columnist for The Miami Herald, predicted "four days of speeches, social activities and 'Big Apple' excitement that will linger in their memories long after their stab wounds have healed." And that was all before the Democratic National Convention began.

THE 1992 CAMPAIGN: The Media; Democrats Stay on TV, Even If Not on the News

Heading into last week's convention, it looked as if network cutbacks and a lack of real drama would doom the Democrats to media obscurity. Instead, the convention turned out to be almost impossible for television viewers to avoid. For six days running, it was the theme of the morning programs and the top story of the network news programs anchored from Madison Square Garden. It filled local news programs and took over prime time on CNN and PBS. It was a running joke on the "Tonight" show and the major topic on "Nightline," and it even occupied the time between music videos on MTV.

Networking; On Line (Let's Hope) From the Garden . . .

It's a network manager's worst nightmare: install a local area network with up to 100 personal computers, provide word processing and electronic-mail services, allow for access by laptop-computer users, coordinate the hookup of data transmission lines with the phone company, and connect to a mainframe thousands of miles away. And do it all in about a week. Welcome to the Democratic and Republican National Conventions, where every news organization has to replicate its computer system. No one has a complete count on how many systems were installed for last week's Democratic event in New York, but about 125 major news organizations were there, according to the Democratic National Committee, installing anywhere from 2 to 100 PC's each.

From Threatened to Just Threadbare, U.P.I. Adjusts to Buyout

In the three weeks since United Press International was acquired by a Saudi-owned, London-based communications company, life at the beleaguered news agency has changed from grim panic about the future to its normal state of threadbare, wise-guy cynicism. "It's the typical shoestring U.P.I. setup of getting the job done against all odds," said Frank Sapir, the Chicago bureau chief, who was brought to New York last week to help cover the Democratic Convention.

THE 1992 CAMPAIGN: The Media; NBC Calls Its Venture With PBS A Success

As Gov. Mario M. Cuomo addressed the Democratic National Convention, Michael Gartner, the president of NBC News, burst into the NBC production truck, thrilled that the competition was not carrying the speech live. "Look at ABC," he said, pointing to a wall of television monitors. "They're in 'Doogie Howser' at the moment. This is the advantage of my PBS deal."

Kelly Irwin and Saro Liotta-Mangio

AT 7 P.M. on Saturday, about an hour before Saro Liotta-Mangio and Kelly Irwin were to be married in Riverside Park, it seemed as if everyone in the 79th Street Boat Basin were preparing for the event. People walked along the docks carrying pasta dishes and fruit plates for the reception. One woman stood on the deck of her boat asking passers-by which shoes she should wear. "Living in the marina is like living in a little village," Mr. Liotta-Mangio said. "It's very communal. If you feel lonely, you only have to blast your horn five times -- to signal for an emergency -- and everybody will come. It doesn't matter if it's a real emergency. Fifty people will show up and party with you."

The Rev. Calvin O. Butts 3d, the pastor of the Abyssinian Baptist Church in Harlem who came under fire from black leaders for his support of Ross Perot, said yesterday that he now was endorsing another independent candidate, Ron D. Daniels, an educator who Mr. Butts said could not win the Presidency. While he continued to attack the Democrats' record with blacks, he said the "practical choice" for President, with Mr. Perot out of the race, was Gov. Bill Clinton of Arkansas.
