:25:00
- Is that the Times? Gould?
- Yeah, it's Jack Gould at the Times.
:25:03
He's a hell of a writer.
:25:04
You should hire him away from the Times.
:25:06
If we can afford him.
:25:08
Senate's investigating McCan'thy.
:25:11
What?
:25:13
The Army's charging that McCan'thy
and Cohn exercised undue pressure...
:25:16
...to get preferential treatment
for Schine.
:25:18
I saw Crichton down at the Sun.
:25:20
- He's unimpeachable.
- Second source?
:25:21
No, but it's coming out on the wire
in two hours.
:25:24
Who's heading up the investigation?
:25:25
- It's not gonna be McCan'thy.
- Are you...? Really?
:25:28
- What happened? What's going on?
- Call the Post for a second source.
:25:33
The Senate's investigating McCan'thy.
:25:36
There is an added bit of comedy
to this story.
:25:38
The committee can't convene
for several days...
:25:40
...because Senator McCan'thy
has a case of laryngitis.
:25:43
And he must recover in
the desert air of Arizona.
:25:49
Oh, how mysterious.
:25:50
But Stevens is going after him...
:25:52
...and it looks like Joe Welch.
- Yeah.
:25:54
- They'll allow each side to call witnesses...
- Great, I'm on that.
:25:57
- And be privy to testimony.
:25:59
Hey, Fred, we still have a meeting
when I get back.
:26:01
We're gonna go talk to Thompson.
:26:05
No, thanks, Jack. Bye.
:26:08
Well, Freddy, we're a hit.
Right up there with Howdy Doody, huh.
:26:12
Can I have an outside line, please?
:26:16
- Outside line, please.
- Yes, 74, 76...
:26:43
"The fact of newscaster Don Hollenbeck's
suicide yesterday...
:26:46
...does not remove from the record...
:26:48
...that peculiar history of
the leftist slanting of the news...
:26:52
...indulged consistently by the
Columbia Broadcasting System.
:26:56
Hollenbeck was what most
astute students of CBS's...
:26:59
...strange and questionable
new methods...
