NBC Selling Microsoft a Stake in Cable Channel
Date: 14 December 1995
By Bill Carter
Bill Carter
NBC and the Microsoft Corporation will announce a deal today under which Microsoft would buy a 50 percent interest in NBC's cable channel America's Talking as part of an effort to form an all-news channel that could challenge the Cable News Network, executives close to the negotiations said last night. Microsoft is expected to pay an estimated $100 million for the half-interest in the channel, which would be renamed since its format would no longer consist of all-talk programming. NBC would operate the channel, relying on its network news organization as well as its affiliate news service, which is based in Charlotte, N.C. NBC's affiliated stations are also expected to provide news material to the channel.

CRITIC'S NOTEBOOK;Going Beyond the Headlines, a Little
Date: 13 December 1995

Network-news fans can hardly help noticing the profusion of labels for stories that do not quite fit into the usual dinner-time rundown of the day's events. There's "American Agenda" on ABC's "World News Tonight," "Eye on America" on "CBS Evening News," "The Fleecing of America" on "NBC Nightly News" and others. The labeling can get silly, but the impulse to go beyond headline purveying is admirable. Headlines are like bread lines, and you know what the Bible says about living by bread alone. So let's have a look. "The Fleecing of America," introduced on "NBC Nightly News" in June and generally shown on Wednesday nights, is in the evergreen tradition of the expose. Based on the unarguable assumption that tax money is being squandered on dubious causes and crooked individuals, this useful series has lately taken on Social Security frauds (claims on behalf of the dead and the incarcerated), new and needless bridges across the Missouri River ($17 million each), the latest multimillion-dollar boondoggle at the embarrassment-prone Denver International Airport and the use of Air Force planes to carry rooters to football games around the country. The reporting by Lisa Myers and Roger O'Neil is pointed, and they are not likely to run out of scandals soon. Tonight, for the Christmas season: charity rip-offs.

CLINTON'S RATINGS OVER 50% IN POLL AS G.O.P. DECLINES
Date: 14 December 1995
By Richard L. Berke
Richard Berke
President Clinton has emerged from the Federal budget standoff with his highest public ratings in nearly two years, while House Republicans, particularly Speaker Newt Gingrich, have lost much of the good will they enjoyed after their sweep of Congress last year, the latest New York Times/CBS News Poll shows. Virtually every finding showed striking evidence of renewed political strength for the President: Mr. Clinton's job approval level has broken 50 percent for the first time in The Times's polling since February 1994. Americans have begun to give him more credit for a healthier economy. And they perceive Mr. Clinton as far more earnest than the Republicans in trying to find a solution to the budget impasse.

SANDERS FINDS PRIME TIME IN TWO LOCKER ROOMS;Cornerback Might Be Giant's Main Target
Date: 14 December 1995
By Mike Freeman
Mike Freeman
What is sometimes lost in the commercials, the dances in the end zone, the Prime Time image, is that Deion Sanders is one of the best cover cornerbacks ever to play the game. He cannot rap, but the man can play football. The question is: How do you beat him? Many teams often go away from Sanders out of fear, but don't be surprised on Sunday if the Giants are bold and go right at him.
