  • South Florida Trial Targets Ira 'Agents' Three Accused of Gunrunning
    The Miami Herald April 30, 2000 Sunday FINAL EDITION SOUTH FLORIDA TRIAL TARGETS IRA 'AGENTS' THREE ACCUSED OF GUNRUNNING BY DANIEL DE VISE In dimly lit Irish pubs across South Florida, passionate partisans are selling raffle tickets to pay court costs for the "political prisoners" they call the "Florida Four." Federal prosecutors take a less romantic view of the Florida Four, a quartet they accuse of running guns from Florida to the Irish Republican Army. Trial begins Monday in Fort Lauderdale for three natives of Belfast, Northern Ireland, charged with shipping more than 100 guns to the IRA from post offices in Boca Raton and Deerfield Beach in boxes disguised as baby clothes and toy firetrucks. A Boca Raton woman, Siobhan Browne, who rounds out the Florida Four, will not go to trial. The former stockbroker from Cork, Ireland, pleaded guilty last month as part of a bargain that will likely see her take the stand to testify against the others. All of Great Britain will be watching the case, which threatened to derail a delicate peace in Northern Ireland when it broke last summer. The 2-year-old Good Friday agreement, a bid to end seven centuries of conflict, calls for the disarmament of the IRA. Few could have expected the battle for Northern Ireland to spill over into Broward County, a place unaccustomed to criminal defendants with brogues. "We will demonstrate at trial that this was an official operation of the Provisional Irish Republican Army," said Assistant U.S. Attorney Richard Scruggs, referring to the branch of the IRA linked to a trail of political bombings and assassinations over the past 30 years.

Copies of the full technical report including all Tables are available for $15.50 each (checks to be made payable to the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania). This research is a part of the Cultural Indicators study of trends in television content and effects conducted under grants from the American Medical Association, and the National Institute of Mental Health, George Gerbner and Larry Gross Co-principal Investigators, Nancy Signorielli Research Coordinator. \\J HIGHLIGHTS OF VIOLENCE PROFILE NO. 9 Annenberg School of Communications, University of Pennsylvania Television violence dropped sharply in 1977 from the record high reached a year ago. But the eVi4ence continues to indicate television's cumulative cultivation of viewer conceptions of danger, mistrust, and alienation. Moreover, new data suggest that heavy viewers of police and crime shows are more likely than light viewers to act on these conceptions: they report acquiring locks, dogs and guns to protect themselves. With each of its components showing a decline, the Violence Index is close to the record low of the 1973 season. However, violence still appeared in more than two-thirds of all prime-time programs and in dine out of ten weekend morning programs at the rate of five incidents and 16 incidents per hour respectively.

The networks would decide which programs merited the warning. No current series would contain warnings, though individual episodes might. No cartoons would contain warnings (McAvoy 1993b). Responding to the announcement, President Bill Clinton wrote, "Millions of parents are rightly concerned that their children are exposed to far too many graphic pictures of murder and mayhem.
