DALE L. CRESSMAN News in Lights The Times Square Zipper and Newspaper Signs in an Age of Technological Enthusiasm During the latter half of the nineteenth century, when the telegraph had produced an appetite for breaking news, New York City newspaper publishers used signs on their buildings to report headlines and promote their newspapers. Originally, chalkboards were used to post headlines. But, fierce competition led to the use of new technologies, such as magic lantern projections. These and, later, electrically lighted signs, would evoke amazement. In 1928, during an age of invention, the New York Times installed an electric “moving letter” sign on its building in Times Square.

How it all came about is told in Rebel In Radio and will appeal to a wide audience - those involved profes- sionally in communications, musicians and music lovers as well as the general reader - interested in a warm and pleasant first -hand account by the man who guided it for more than 30 years. ELLIOTT M. SANGER was graduated from the School of Journalism, Columbia University, and spent many years in advertising and publishing before he and John V. L. Hogan established WQXR in 1936. He was Executive Vice -President and General Manager of WQXR from 1936 to 1965, and retired as Chairman of the Board in 1967. Mr. Sanger now is Chairman of the All- Industry Radio Music License Committee which negotiates music performance licenses with ASCAP, BMI and others, for all the local radio stations in the United States.

Hogan, had the unique idea of combining the science of radio with the ancient art of music, and started what eight years later became the now -famous WQXR, "The Radio Station of The New York Times." That concept blazed a trail in the wilderness of broadcasting which was followed by many stations across the country.

I am here with Frank Smallwood at his home in Shelburne, Vermont. Professor Smallwood, I would like to start out today finding out what made you go to Dartmouth as an undergraduate. FRANK SMALLWOOD: Okay. That's a good place to start. Actually, it was a combination of things. I was born in New Jersey, northern New Jersey, and I grew up in New Jersey. I then went to Lawrenceville School for three years, which is in New Jersey down by Princeton. Then I was drafted. This is now 1945 as the war was coming to an end and I was assigned to Fort Dix, New Jersey. So I spent my entire life in New Jersey and I decided (this is a horrible thing to say) [Laughter] but I decided that I wanted to get out of New Jersey and I didn't have strong preferences. Most of my classmates from Lawrenceville went to Princeton. I just didn't think that made any sense, so my sister's husband, my older sister's husband had gone to Dartmouth and he was talking up Dartmouth. He had just gotten out of the service and he said, "You ought to go to Dartmouth.

Hunt, whose spectacular business success blinded the public to his brilliant philosophical achievements. It was H.L. Hunt who invented the term “The Mistaken” for the self-corrupted members of the new class who now control our world – he might have added that they could also be described as “The Misshapen”, because of their warped and perverted sense of values.

  • Partisanship in Balance: the New York Times Coverage of the Spanish Civil War, 1936- 1939
    Partisanship in Balance: The New York Times Coverage of the Spanish Civil War, 1936- 1939 Julie Prieto [email protected] 208 Rosse Lane #105 Stanford, CA 94305 (650) 380-6286 Partisanship in Balance: The New York Times Coverage of the Spanish Civil War, 1936- 1939 Introduction In 1896, The New York Times was a small, conservative newspaper tottering on the brink of death with a readership of only 9,000 and years of mounting financial losses. Within three years of its purchase by Adolph Simon Ochs though, the paper had increased its readership to 25,000 and was on firm financial footing, having changed its format to eliminate the short fiction, comics, and gossip columns in favor of a heavy emphasis on news and book reviews.1 Ochs and his managing editor Carr Van Anda revitalized the paper not by competing directly with their main rivals, Hearst and Pulitzer, but by changing the paper to attract a different readership, one that was more interested in “hard” news with a heavy emphasis on foreign reporting. Particularly in the years after WWI, the New York Times under Ochs focused on increasing the number of foreign bureaus and correspondents around the world, even opening in 1924 its own radio station in order to receive messages direct from Europe.2 By the late 1920s, The New York Times had a reputation as being one of if not the most important news source in the United States for both national and international news. It was almost the national newspaper of record, with a readership of 780,000.3 No other newspaper came close in readership, scope of reporting, and importance in the national sphere.

Controlling for the incumbent President's activity across issues, I find that during the presidential campaign the New York Times gives more emphasis to topics that are owned by the Democratic party (civil rights, health care, labor and social welfare), when the incumbent President is a Republican.
