anchor seems very aware. In
his office at ABC, as an exer-
cise bicycle stood on one side
of the room and a photo of
his 11-year-old daughter
stood on a window sill on the
other side, he was at
somewhat of a loss about
how to address the claims
and counterclaims made
about him.
"What does one do?" he
asked. "One does what one
can to be fair and be objec-
tive and be sure that the
many sides of the story are
told. As a journalist, it's
vital for me to tell my au-
dience that there are many
truths involved in the Mid-
dle East."
But "fairness" also has
many "sides" and many
interpretations, especially
for an issue as volatile, as
convoluted and, for many, as
personal as the Middle East.
The mere lift of an eyebrow,
the subtle pause of the voice,
or the posing of a question
that even its interrogator
later acknowledges was
"inappropriate" can per-
suade some of Mr. Jennings'
vast audience that
"fairness" and balance have
been subverted by a covert
—and, to them, a very
troublesome — politics.
Such mannerisms and
queries may especially per-
suade those viewers who are
already disposed to think the
worst of the man that 90
percent of TV viewers rate
as the most credible broad-
caster in television. ❑

Kohl, Havel
Jewish Homage

Bonn (JTA) — Chancellor
Helmut Kohl of Germany
and President Vaclav Havel
of Czechoslovakia paid
tribute to what Mr. Kohl
called "the common past of
Jewish heritage" in their
countries.
The two national leaders
opened an exhibition at the
chancery in Bonn called
"Judaica Prague." It con-
sists of 100 art objects and
religious artifacts loaned by
the state-run Jewish Muse-
um in Prague.
The display included pic-
tures drawn by Jewish chil-
dren in the Theresienstadt
concentration camp in Nazi-
occupied Czechoslovakia
during World War II.
About 1,200 guests at-
tended, among them politi-
cians, writers, artists and
diplomats. Germany's chief
of state, President Richard
von Weiisacker, was pre-
sent.
