One Year..................... $6,00 Six Months................... $4.00 The Press and The Presidency In his October 26pressc ©ference. President Nixon hauled off and belted the press" for what he called the most outrageous, frantic, vicious, hysterical and distorted’’ news reporting be had experienced in his "27 years oi public life.” And, although he restricted his criticism to the ‘electronic media," it is possible that Mr. Nixon feels that other media--newspapersandmagazines- may also have carried »hat he termed “distorted" news. The problem of the Presidency and the Press is not new. And it is not surprising that each man to occupy that high office has, in his turn, "felt the heat" to the degree that he might honestly believe that his was the worst" experience on record. Opinions will, of course, vary, but it is possible that if and when the history of such matters is compiled, it will be shown that the most extreme and vicious experience was that to which Senator Barry Goldwater was subjected during bos cam paign for the top office in 1964 Recently, William F. Buckley, Jr. recalled some of the -gems” carried against the Senator at the time. In alphabetical order, here are some at them By John Bailey. Democratic National Chairman "...the plat form writers (for Barry Goldwater) have drawn up an exercise in fantasy, fear and hate.’’ By Sen. William Fulbright "Goldwater Republicanism is the closest thing in American politics to an equivalent at Rus sian Stalinism.' By John Gronouski. Postmaster General (at the tune): "We know what Sen. Goldwater is talking about. Extremism is hate and divisiveness. It is spitting 00 the ambassador to the United Nations. It is labeling the Chief Justice of the U. S. Supreme Court a traitor and a Communist. It is justification for turning dogs loose on demonstrators, or bombing churches, or pouring acid in swimming pools.” Rev. Martin L. King "We see dangerous signs of Hitlerism in the Goldwater campaign. If Goldwater wins., there is certain to be an outbreak of violence." Drew Pearson "The smell of Fascism has been in the air at this convention (in San Francisco)." These were only a few of the "vicious, outrageous, hysteri cal and distorted” attacks made-and reported by the press-- against Senator Goldwater when be was a candidate for the office of the Presidency. Well, gentle reader, what dees the newsman--whether Editor. Publisher, or reporter—de Refuse to print the malicious at tacks? Where doe- gye draw the line ’ When an obviously unfair and untrue statement is made against a public .ndividuai, do the people "have the right to know," or should such a state ment not be published-1 If you »ere in the editor’s chair, what would you do?
