  • Longines-Wittnauer with Eric Johnston
    Video Transcript for Archival Research Catalog (ARC) Identifier 95873 Longines-Wittnauer with Eric Johnston Announcer: It’s time for the Longines Chronoscope, a television journal of the important issues of the hour. Brought to you every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. A presentation of the Longines-Wittnauer Watch Company, maker of Longines, the world’s most honored watch, and Wittnauer, distinguished companion to the world honored Longines. Frank Knight: Good evening, this is Frank Knight. May I introduce our coeditors for this edition of the Longines Chronoscope: from the CBS television news staff, Larry Lesueur and Charles Collingwood. Our distinguished guest for this evening is Eric Johnston, Special Emissary of the president to the Near East. Larry Lesueur: Mr. Johnston you’ve done so much work of national importance in the last ten years under three administrations, I guess. I’ve probably covered more of your press conferences than almost anyone else. Now you’ve just returned from the Middle East where you were the Special Emissary of the president. Can you tell us exactly what your mission was there? Eric Johnston: Yes. I went out to the Near East to present a program for the development of the Jordan Valley before the program was presented to the United Nations and perhaps summarily dismissed by the nations involved. The development of the Jordan Valley calls for the irrigation of 240,000 additional acres of land in this area for the development of 65,000 additional horsepower of electric energy. Under this program, the four nations involved in which the Jordan, which comprises the Jordan watershed, would agree upon the division of the waters of the Jordan.

  • Edward R. Murrow
    Edward R. Murrow Edward Roscoe Murrow (April 25, 1908 – April 27, 1965), born Egbert Roscoe Murrow,[1] was an American broadcast journalist and war correspondent. He first gained Edward R. Murrow prominence during World War II with a series of live radio broadcasts from Europe for the news division of CBS. During the war he recruited and worked closely with a team of war correspondents who came to be known as the Murrow Boys. A pioneer of radio and television news broadcasting, Murrow produced a series of reports on his television program See It Now which helped lead to the censure of Senator Joseph McCarthy. Fellow journalists Eric Sevareid, Ed Bliss, Bill Downs, Dan Rather, and Alexander Kendrick consider Murrow one of journalism's greatest figures, noting his honesty and integrity in delivering the news.

  • Edward R. Murrow Family Moved to Blanchard, Washington
    Murrow was born near Greensboro, North Carolina; when he was four his Edward R. Murrow family moved to Blanchard, Washington. He attended Stanford and the Journalist ( 1908 – 1965 ) University of Washington, and graduated from Washington State in 1930. In 1935, he married Janet Huntington Brewster, and their son, Charles Casey, was born in 1945, in West London. Also in 1935, Murrow joined CBS, and, in 1937, he went to London to serve as the director of the CBS Europe- an bureau. He recruited journalist WILLIAM L. SHIRER to assist him in re- porting events on the continent as war approached. The two men would become the fathers of broadcast journalism. Murrow gained his first glimpse of fame during the March 1938 An- schluss, in which Adolf Hitler engineered the annexation of Austria by Nazi Germany. During the following year, leading up to the outbreak of World War II, Murrow continued to be based in England where his broad- casts began with the famous line “This . .is London.” In 1940, he ended one radio segment with “Good night, and good luck,” ushering in his sec- ond famous catch phrase. As the war continued, Murrow expanded the CBS news staff. The result was a group of reporters acclaimed for their intellect and descriptive power, including ERIC SEVAREID, CHARLES COLLINGWOOD, Howard K. Smith, RICHARD C. HOTTELET, Winston Burdett, CHARLES SHAW and LARRY LESUEUR. After the war, he hired WALTER CRONKITE away from AP. From 1951 to 1955, Murrow was the host of This I Believe. He also recorded a series of narrated “historical albums” called I Can Hear It Now, which inaugurated his partnership with producer FRED W.

  • To Congress by January 3 1, Concerning the Commercial Radio Industry’S Compliance
    to Congress by January 3 1, concerning the commercial radio industry’s compliance. Although many of the Bill’s matters appear to be elementary and quite basic, the premise here is when former rational broadcasting companies are permitted to become goliath national mega-corporations, greed, community apathy, and non-ethical conduct, distort top executives morals and values to dishonor hard working staff members and foster wayward beliefs that money and lies will cover a multitude of public welfare, company stockholder, and Commission transgressions. Justice is designed to be blind so as to treat all without prejudice, not because legality cannot see past the well endowed. Hodson will now continue forth and share portions of the Congressional Record regarding Senator Feingold’s position on the Bill’s creation and introduction. On June 13,2002, the Congressman addressed the Senate floor, “Mr. President, I rise today to voice my concerns about the concentration of ownership in the radio and concert industry and its effect on consumers, artists, local businesses, and ticket prices. I...wanted to make my colleagues aware of the seismic changes that have taken place ...following the passage of the TelecommunicationsAct of 1996. While 1 opposed this act because of its anticonsumer bias, I did not predict that one provision would have caused so much harm to a diverse range of interests. The provision 1 am referring to is the elimination of the national radio ownership caps and relaxation of local ownership caps, which has triggered a wave of consolidation and caused harm. This change was not beneficial to consumers or local radio station owners or broadcasters.

    SCHROTH RESEARCH PAPERS FOR SEVAREID BIOGRAPHY 1.25 Linear Feet Loyola U Diversity Library Department of Special Collections and Archives Collection #22 RAYMOND A. SCHROTH RESEARCH PAPERS FOR ( SEVAREID BIOGRAPHY In 1995 Loyola University journalism professor Raymond A. Schroth, S.1., published The American Journey ofEric Sevareid, the culmination of two years of extensive research into the life of the CBS newsman who, for almost five decades, commented on the American experience. During a year-long sabbatical beginning in summer 1993, Fr. Schroth lived at Georgetown University in Washington, DC, where he spent countless hours examining the Eric Sevareid Collection at the Library of Congress. Author's inquiries in the book review sections of the New York Times and the Washington Post yielded responses from friends and colleagues as well as from ordinary fans with memories of Sevareid. Following every lead, Schroth examined the commentator's Norwegian/Upper Midwestern background by visiting North Dakota and Minnesota and contacted and interviewed scores of friends, family members and fellow journalists. The SchrothJSevareid research papers feature Schroth's correspondence files and the notes (handwritten and typed) from thorough interviews he conducted with Sevareid acquaintances ranging from a childhood sweetheart to CBS luminaries Walter Cronkite and Dan Rather. Additional materials, Sevareid correspondence, broadcasts, etc. can be found in the Library of Congress and other archives. Raymond A. Schroth, S.J. was graduated from Fordham University in 1955 andjoined the Society of Jesus in 1957. Following his ordination to the priesthood in 1967, he earned his Ph.D. in American Thought and Culture at George Washington University.
