[CTRL] Fw: The latest issue of MediaNomics

[A.C. Szul Jr.]

FYI...   ----- Original Message ----- The latest MediaNomics is now on the Web, with two new stories:   As Oil Prices Rise, Free Market Ideas Are Left Out in the Cold For a while this week, the nightly news could have been "That ‘70s Show," as consumers griped about skyrocketing oil and gasoline prices, and TV journalists wondered what the Democrat in the White House would do to fix the situation. But unmentioned by any network was the fact that the Clinton administration had welcomed OPEC’s decision to slash production last spring, the move which led to depleted inventories and higher prices this winter. http://www.mrc.org/fmp/medianomics/2000/mn20000218.html The 1980s, According to Mort In this week’s issue, U.S. News owner and editor-in-chief Mort Zuckerman advises Republicans to drop their advocacy of tax cuts and embrace Clintonomics. That’s not an argument likely to persuade GOP tax-cutters to change their minds, nor is Zuckerman’s assertion that the Republican Party "is still hooked on nostalgia for Ronald Reagan and the sense that he won in 1980 by promising tax cuts." http://www.mrc.org/fmp/medianomics/2000/mn20000218b.html   If you know someone else who'd like to read MediaNomics, please forward this e-mail.
