by Laurie Jo Wechter
Note: AGENDA first appeared in April, 1986. Next month's issue will be the 20th. The paper is financed through advertising, subscription and donation revenues. 10,000 copies are distrib- uted every month for free from over 130 loca- tions in the Ann Arbor/Ypsilanti area. Below, one editor takes a stab at explaining what makes AGENDA tick.
Why AGENDA? It's hard giving a non-rhetorical answer to a question we've had to ask over and over again. We breathe, sleep, don't sleep AGENDA and it is a more personal question than it might seem at first glance. We started AGENDA in early 1986 because we were Myths Distort the Issues frustrated activists. Frustrated because we had a very hard time getting The Ann Arbor News or other media to provide adequate coverage of the issues and events we were concerned with. We also felt the occasional coverage they provided was incomplete, misleading or written with an "angle" in mind. We just got tired of Beyond Bork news reports that left out more truth than they told. So we started our own publication to provide an open by Glenn and Randi Metsch-Ampel community forum, filling an obvious journalistic void in Ann Arbor.

The Lately we feel like we've reached the end of our to the Supreme Court (which we are), there are three myths which have one month we were unable to publish (March, 1987), ability to live in limbo.

The "he" in question is Gregory Lambrakis. Lambrakis is a deputy of the communist-oriented union of the Democratic left (EDA), a party opposed to the policies of Greek Prime Minister Constantino Karamaniis. Lambrakis was assassinated on May 22, 1963, after speaking at a rally protesting the presence of American missiles in Greece. It is his death that ACADEMIC WORD PROCESSING 1 throws into motion a smoke-screen of deception which in turn exposes the weaknesses of Karamaniis government and (by director Costa-Garvas' account) opens the door to the fascistic coup on April 21, 1967 by the Greek military to install George Papadopoulos at the expense of the then sitting center-left government of George Papandreou. The impact "Z" had on international cinema in the late 1960s and early 70s can scarcely be Repetitive Letters, Resumes, Reports, overestimated. The film won the Cannes Film Festival "Jury Prize"; the American Hollywood Oscar "Best Meeting Minutes, Pamphlets- Foreign Film" award; and the New York Critic's Award. The film was also banned in Greece (obviously), Spain, Mexico, Morocco, Brazil, Portugal and India. All Your Word Processing Needs Adapted from the novel of the same name by Vassilis Vassilikos, the film was scripted by Costa- Garvas and Jorge Sempprun. The troupe of international actors and actresses in "Z" include Yves Montand as the ill-fated Lambrakis; Jean-Louis Trintignant as the non-ideological "special investigator" who slowly uncovers the conspiracy; Irene Papas as Lambrakis' widow; and Marcel Bozzufi and Renato Salvatori as 994-4663 • 994-GOOD the two dim-witted thugs blackmailed by the police to commit the murder. A masterfully quick-paced film with the psychological tension of a Hitchcock mystery coupled with the graphic semi-documentary impact of cinema verite, "Z" is nonetheless a calculatedly commercial film that was specifically geared by director Costa-Garvas towards a non-ideological audience. Thus whether viewed as a documentary, action thriller or political biography, the film is highly successful on all counts.
