Members of the Nixon administration often blamed the negative coverage the presidentgot from the media on the adversarial relations between the executive branch and thepress. Never had an administration been so determined to conceal information from the press as the Nixon era has come to be remembered for. And never, too, had reporters been so relentless in their effortsto go after information reserved strictly to members of the president's "inner circle." The administration issuedthreats and pursued court litigations in its scheme to scare reporters from gettingaccess to information the president wished to conceal from the media. Call this censorship; thatwas precisely what many in the media thought the administration was doing. By blurring the boundarybetween prior restraint and seditious libel A e administration, in subtle ways, blended the two concepts as a means of punishing the media. 5 It is truethat of all the Presidents in this century, it is probably true, that I have less, as somebody has said, supporters in the press thanany President.--Richard Nixoni Introduction The focus of this analysis will 'le to examine how Richard M. Nixon obscurelyblended seditious libel with prior restraint in his effort to limit mediaaccess to information as a form of punishment. The time period is from 1969 through 1971, Mr. Nixon's firsttwo years in office and before the 1972 Watergate brealdn.If this sounds like a blueprint to undermine the First Amendment, Nixon's action coursed many to thinkso. Nixon's return to national politics in 1968 surprisedmany who had written his political orbitary following his defeat in the 1962 race forgovernor in California. His defiant statement to reporters then: 'You won't have Dick Nixon to kick around any more,' only confirmed 'his masochism and paranoia toward thepress in blaming it for his defeat,"2 according to media scholars John Tebbel and Sarah Miles Watts. Nixon's obsession with keeping information out of reach from journalistsstemmed from a long standing distrust the president had developedover the years toward the media. Long before he was elected president, Nixon had been involved in several confrontationswith the press which brought his image and reputation into question. The 1962 Californiagubernatorial race, for example, marked the climax of Nixon's frustrations with thepress prior to his election as president in 1968.3 Background When Nixon resurfaced on the national political stageas president-elect in 1968, it could 1 The New Republic "PoorRichard's Bad Press," VolA65, No. 23, December 4, 1971. 2John Tebbe! & SarahMiles Watts The Press and the Presidency (New York: Oxford University Press, 1985), p. 501. 3 U.S. News & World Repnrt, "Will thePress Be Out To Get Nixon," December 2, 1968,p. 40. 1 6 have been easily predicted that his feud with the press would be resurrected because of his protracted problems with the news media. After all, the president and "certain elements of the press have been adversaries ... dating back to the time when Mr. Nixon as a young Congressman, helped exposed Alger Hiss Communist case in 1948.'1 Several years earlier, "newsmen had named him 'Tricky Dick' and to them he attributed part of the blame for his 1960 defeat."5 Nixon's personal style and inability to relax in front of the media made the resumption of hostilities between himself and the press inevitable. Nixon was somehow naive when it came to dealing with the media, an aspect of his personality that constmtly put him on a collision course with reporters. One reporter remarked that "the real tragedy of Richard Nixon is that he has regularly demonstrated an ability to cut his own political throat, and to do it with a deftness that newsmen and civil servants have come to admire."6 Nixon returned to the national scene in 1968, obviously with a personal pledge not to be victimized again by the press. As the president-elect, Mr. Nixon unfortunately began histour de servicein the White House by setting the stage for confrontation with the rric..dia by December 1968. In describing White House press relations to members of his cabinet and their wives, barely one month after he had been elected president, Nixon seemed to be sounding the battle cry: Always remember, the men and women of the news media approach this [interaction with the White House] as an adversarial relationship. The time will come when they will run lies about you, when the columnists and editorial writers will make you seem to be scoundrels or fools, or both and the cartoonists will depict you as ogres. Some of your wives will get up in the morning and look at the papers and start to cry. Now don't let this get you downdon't let it defeat you. And don't try to adjust your actions to do what you think would please them.7 The preceding statement by Mr. Nixon seemed to have defined, in clear terms, the rift between his 4lbid., U.S. News and World Report,1968, p. 39. 6Congressional Quarterly, "Nixon Administration and the News Media,"January 1, 1972, p.4. 6The New Leader, "Nixon, the Press and Vietnam," January 24, 1972,p. 5. 7New York Magazine, "How Nixon Outwits the Press," Vol. 5, October9, 1972, p. 54. 2 7 administration and the media.

The lecture, titled "Morality and Freedom of Speech in the Media," is free and open to the public. As the gruff but good-hearted Lou Grant, Asner symbolized many of the ideals of journalism, both as a no-fluff television producer in the comedy "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" and as an ethical city editor in "Lou Grant." He won five Emmy awards for his Lou Grant portrayals and added two more to his collection for roles in "Rich Man, Poor Man" and "Roots." "I fear the Lou Grants of this world are a dying breed, a species failing to adapt to a rapidly changing environment," Asner wrote in the prologue to Unreliable Sources: A Guide to Detecting Bias in the News Media by journalists Martin Lee and Norman Solomon.

Ultimately the material goes into a presidential library; it will go into the [Jimmy] Carter Library. We’re working with the National Archives on it. The full interviews don’t come out publicly until 2001, when a new President comes in, and also you’ve had a chance to go over the transcript. GR: Okay. MK: It’s going to be used in various ways. It’s a group of presidency scholars and we’re doing profiles of seven offices. We’ve selected seven offices. And we’ll go back over time to the [Richard] Nixon administration, and profile what the functions have been, the responsibilities, different ways in which they’ve been organized. I’m writing the one by myself on communications. I’m doing press and communications by myself. The pieces themselves are going to be short, although they’ll be on a pass-coded website for people coming in so they can then⎯in addition to reading the fifteen pages about some of the general things about the office⎯they’ll be able to select items within it as well. We’ll have links in to longer pieces. And then we’re doing what we call “Standards of a Successful Start” in the spring, which are isolating maybe eight elements that are common to successful transitions. GR: Interesting.

Ethics and responsibility in a time of crisis and change Report by damian tambini polis, lse I am grateful to Isabelle Cao Lijun, Terence Kiff, Eva Knoll, Judy Lin, and Gladys Tang for research assistance relating to this article. Thanks also to those that contributed in the seminars and interviews, who are listed in the appendix. Preface A Crisis for Financial Journalism? The current crisis in global banking, markets and economies has reminded us all of the importance of financial and business journalism. It has also raised a set of profound questions as to the quality of that form of reporting. Why didn’t we know this was coming? Did the journalists fail to put the financial system under proper scrutiny? Are they equipped to deal with the continuing complex story? Is this representative of a wider problem with the news media? This pamphlet seeks to address some of those questions. Research for this report began before the Northern Rock scandal. It is not a knee- jerk response. It attempts to set out a framework for a critical analysis of financial journalism. Therefore, we believe it is a useful tool for addressing the present debate about the coverage of the developing crisis.
