TV in review

By KICK DU BROW If UrM fnaa IwKnwtiwHl HOLLYWOOD UPI—A dispute at CBS-TV over how much live coverage of Senate hearings en the Viet Nam war should he broadcast for the home audience has resulted in the resigaathm of the network’s news Particularly pinpointed was the housewife audience, since the hearings are held during the daytime. The resignation Tuesday of Wed Friendly, the outspoken feoas of the powerful and reeurgent CBS-TV newe department, which includes such names as Walter Cronkite and Brie Sevareid, touched off a furor of debate both within and without the television industry. Friendly’s decision was prompted by a rejection of his desire to present live, lengthy Coverage of lest Thursday’s hrarfncu of the IT. S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee. The rejection came on the heels of an executive realignment at the network which re-

sulted in Friendly being made responsible to a newly promoted officer, rather than having direct access to CBS President Frank Stanton. It was at this intermediary level that the rejection was made. In his resignation letter, Friendly noted that when he timed in that Thursday morning, he saw the Senate hearings on NBC-TV, while CBS-TV carried “a fifth rerun of ‘Lucy,’ then followed by an eighth rerun of ’The Real McCoys’.” He asked: “Where would broadcast journalism have been last Thursday if NBC had elected not to cary the U. S. Senate hearings of the war?” Just hours after Friendly’s resignation Tuesday, It was announced that CBS-TV would carry the Senate hearings live this Thursday and Friday, plus a special one-hour broadcast Friday night The executive had said in his letter that he was convinced “that my leaving will help insure the ... Independence of the news operation.”

NBC-TV had already announced it would continue to broadcast the hearings live. In Ids letter. Friendly, a longtime associate of file late Edward R. Murrow, recalled CBS’ “crusade of many years that demands broadcast access to congressional debate.” Following the resignation, two groups of key CBS news personnel sent messages to file very top network brass asking for an attempt at reconciliation that might bring Friendly back.

Friendly Tuesday, prior to his resignation, trying to persuade him to change his mind. A statement by Cronkite spoke of Friendly’s “brilliant, imaginative and hard-hitting guidance,” and added: “I am saddened at his departure.” It also was reported, according to the network source, that part of Friendly’s contract was that if he left the network source, that part of Friendly’s

news producer at $100,000 a year for four years, but that he had rejected this opportunity. Friendly’s letter noted that fids was the third time since 'Thursday that he had asked for his resignation to be accepted.
