Success With a Satellite Leads to a Space Network
Date: 09 July 1994

Six years ago, Rene V. Anselmo parlayed nearly $80 million from the sale of television stations into what seemed like a sure bet for bankruptcy: launching the world's first privately owned international communications satellite. Despite having no customers until after the satellite reached its orbit, Mr. Anselmo's Panamsat Corporation is now reaping a nice profit. Beaming television programming between the United States, Latin America and Europe for customers like CNN and Home Box Office, the company earned nearly $17 million in profits in 1993 on $50 million in sales.

The World; A Spin Doctor Goes Abroad
Date: 10 July 1994

DAVID R. GERGEN, who helped make Ronald Reagan's image what it was and then was recruited to do the same for Bill Clinton, has found it hard to shake his own public image, as the master of spin. Even under his new title of Special Adviser to the President and the Secretary of State, his debut was most remarked upon here last week for the intensity of the Administration's efforts to manipulate public perception. To be sure, Mr. Gergen stayed behind the scenes during the President's European trip. But no one traveling with them could help but notice how suddenly accessible often-remote Administration officials had become. In briefing rooms, hotel lobbies, even on the charter aircraft carrying the White House press, they descended so relentlessly that whispering began about just what was going on. When even the State Department's director of policy planning, James Steinberg, showed up on the press plane and volunteered a mid-air pre-briefing on the summit meeting for the seven biggest industrialized democracies, the explanation that jumped to everyone's lips was that a lot was being done to distract attention from Haiti, and that it must be Mr. Gergen's doing.

Primal Curiosity
Date: 10 July 1994
"With everything else that's going on in the world," as one New Yorker put it recently, "wouldn't you think people would have more to do than pay all this attention to the O. J. Simpson case?" Of course, they have more to do. They had more to do 40 years ago when the wife of one Dr. Sam Sheppard was bludgeoned (he claimed) by "a bushy-haired stranger." But they read the miles of newsprint that accompanied that crime as avidly as America is now reading the miles of newsprint accompanying two deaths in California.

A nationwide poll of teen-agers suggests that many lead lives shadowed by adult concerns like violence, drinking and getting a good job, but these are worries that many say they cannot share with adults. Many appear to live in virtually separate worlds from adults. Four in 10 say their parents sometimes or often do not make time to help them, and many say the people they both trust and fear the most are other teen-agers.
