  • Opinion | Sylvia Chase and the Boys' Club of TV News
    SUNDAY REVIEW Sylvia Chase and the Boys’ Club of TV News When we started at the networks in the early ’70s, most of us tried to hide our gender. Sylvia spoke out. By Lesley Stahl Ms. Stahl is a correspondent for “60 Minutes.” Jan. 12, 2019 Back in the early 1970s, the TV network news organizations wanted to show the world that they were “equal opportunity employers.” And so, CBS, ABC and NBC scoured the country for women and minorities. In 1971, Sylvia Chase was a reporter and radio producer in Los Angeles, and I was a local TV reporter in Boston. CBS hired her for the New York bureau; I was sent to Washington. Sylvia, who died last week at age 80, and I were CBS’s affirmative action babies, along with Connie Chung and Michele Clark. To ensure we had no illusions about our lower status, we were given the title of “reporter.” We would have to earn the position of “correspondent” that our male colleagues enjoyed. We were more like apprentices, often sent out on stories with the seniors, like Roger Mudd and Daniel Schorr. While we did reports for radio, the “grown-ups” — all men — did TV, but we were allowed to watch how they developed sources, paced their days and wrote and edited their stories. Up until then, most women in broadcast journalism were researchers. At first, the four of us in our little group were grateful just to be in the door as reporters. Things began to stir when the women at Newsweek sued over gender discrimination.

    "It Didn't Start With Dateline NBC" (National Review 6/21/93) file:///G:/Journalism/Ethics/Deception/Dateline%20NBC%20Truck%20... It Didn't Start With Dateline NBC By Walter Olson National Review, June 21, 1993 * * * An "electronic Titanic"--as Howard Rosenberg of the Los Angeles Times called it---"an unprecedented disaster in the annals of network news, and perhaps the biggest TV scam since the Quiz Scandals." To many, NBC's Dateline fiasco seemed a freak, a bizarre departure from accepted network standards. Would any half-awake news organization have helped stage a crash test that was rigged to get a particular outcome? Or concealed from the public key elements--the hidden rockets, the over-filled tank, the loose gas cap? Or entrusted its judgment to axe-grinding "experts" who were deeply involved in litigating against the expose's target? Or, after questions came up, refused to apologize no matter how strong the evidence grew? NBC was a latecomer to the safety-expose game, and had come under cost-cutting pressure. Maybe it lacked the high-minded public spirit and adequate research budget that was said to typify perennial Emmy-bait series like 60 Minutes (CBS) and 20/20 (ABC). And indeed, both CBS and ABC put out word that "their standards forbid the sort of staging that got NBC into trouble," to quote a second L.A. Times reporter. If you think so, read on. An investigation of past network auto-safety coverage reveals that both CBS and ABC have run the same sorts of grossly misleading crash videos and simulations, withheld the same sorts of material facts about the tests, and relied on the same dubious experts with the same ties to the plaintiffs bar.

  • How Accurate Are the STAR National Percentile Rank Scores for Individual Students?–An Interpretive Guide
    How Accurate Are the STAR National Percentile Rank Scores for Individual Students?–An Interpretive Guide Version 1.0 August 1999 David Rogosa Stanford University [email protected] 1. Introduction Parents and others use test scores from standardized testing programs like STAR to answer, at least in part, the basic question, How is my kid doing in school? For the Stanford 9 part of the STAR testing, the National Percentile Rank Scores are the main information provided in the 1999 STAR Parent Report. These percentile rank scores, which provide a comparison of the student's score to a national sample, are also featured in the 1998 Home Report and in the more extensive Student Report. For reference, below is an excerpt from a sample 1999 Grade 10 STAR Parent Report showing the percentile rank reporting for the Stanford 9. For readers unfamiliar with current California activities, basic information on the STAR testing program and the score reports is available from CDE: Reporting 1999 STAR Results to Parents/Guardians Assistance Packet. Percentile rank reporting from a sample 1999 Grade 10 STAR Parent Report. There is a public perception that these numbers are pretty solid. For example, last year in a discussion of the interpretation of individual scores: "Dan Edwards, the education spokesman for Gov. Pete Wilson, ...... said parents and policymakers should focus on a hard number, 'the national percentile rank, grade by grade'."Los Angeles Times, July 16, 1998 The whole idea of this interpretive guide is to apply some common-sense descriptions of accuracy to these National Percentile Rank Scores.
