It Takes People to Make a Strike: Tales of Fear and Courage at The News
Date: 10 March 1991
By Alan Finder

It has all the elements of a great Daily News story -- violence, ambition, moral dilemmas and the struggle of common people. For the last 137 days, though, the story has been about the paper itself. The struggle over the future of The News, once the country's largest metropolitan daily, has been played out on a broad public stage before a bitterly divisive strike began on Oct. 25. But the protracted showdown between The News and its battle-scarred unions has obscured the private sagas of hundreds of News employees.

3 Unions at The News Would Bear Brunt of Job Cuts, Leaders Say

As talks on the fate of The Daily News continued last night, union leaders negotiating with Robert Maxwell said that almost 700 of the 800 jobs the British publisher wants to eliminate would be from three large unions, the pressmen, the drivers and the Newspaper Guild. The proposal would reduce the number of pressmen at The News to about 200 from 400, the union leaders said. The drivers would lose 300 of 700 jobs, and the Guild, which represents newsroom, advertising and clerical employees, would lose about 180 from the current level of more than 700 workers.

The prospective buyer of The Daily News made public yesterday for the first time how much money he needs to save if he takes over the troubled tabloid -- a figure that works out to more than $70 million a year. In between negotiating sessions yesterday, union leaders sounded upbeat, not because of the figure -- which both sides acknowledged would mean deep cuts -- but because for the first time in nearly a year, they said, there was a concrete target for their negotiations.

AFTER THE WAR: The Press; 40 Western Journalists Are Freed By Baghdad

Forty Western journalists, held captive by Iraq for almost a week, were turned over to the International Red Cross in Baghdad yesterday and were expected to leave the country today. The journalists, including 11 Americans, were taken to the Diana Hotel in Baghdad yesterday afternoon, several hours after the Iraqi Government first acknowledged it had held them since they were apparently captured shortly after they set out from Kuwait City on Sunday and Monday to cover civil strife in southern Iraq.

Journalists Free, but Others Remain
Date: 09 March 1991
The freeing of 40 Western journalists held by Iraq is cause for rejoicing by family, friends and colleagues. Along with two U.S. servicemen, they have been turned over to the Red Cross. It appears that most of the journalists were captured on the outskirts of Basra and two days later taken to Baghdad. Early reports suggest that they were not ill treated. War reporting is a high-risk business. The penalty for enterprise can be imprisonment or worse. Legitimate fact-gathering can be misconstrued as espionage -- especially by Iraqi authorities, who last year executed an Iranian-born British journalist. Even in more open societies like Israel, wartime promotes overzealousness. Taher Shriteh, a Palestinian who has worked for American and British news organizations, was charged with giving aid to the enemy by faxing a Palestinian leaflet to Reuters.

An article on Feb. 17 about the financial difficulties of Australian news organizations misinterpreted a comment of Gerard Henderson, executive director of the Sydney Institute, a research group. Mr. Henderson was suggesting that Australia's two most influential media billionaires, Rupert Murdoch and Kerry Packer, would be called "powerful mates" of the Government if foreigners were allowed to increase their media holdings; he did not make the criticism himself.
