More than half of all black children today live in female-headed families, while nearly four in five white children live in two-parent families. In recent years, many conservatives and some liberals have concluded, as Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan (D.-N.Y.) presciently put it in his then-controversial 1965 report, The Ne- gro Family,...

During its heyday in the 1930s and '40s, radio was a national entertainment me- dium. Local stations belonged to net- works-the National Broadcasting Company and the Columbia Broadcasting System-that offered comedy programs, action dramas, soap operas, and variety shows, and America lis- tened, notes Boston College professor Marilyn J. Matelski in a special issue of Freedom Forum's Media Studies Journal (Summer 1993) devoted to the "forgotten" medium. But...

When NBC News admitted earlier this year that the dramatic crash test shown on a "Dateline NBC" broadcast last November had been rigged, the fiasco was widely portrayed as, in the words of the Los Angeles Times, "an unprec- edented disaster in the annals of networknews." The use of hidden toy-rocket engines to ensure that the GM truck burst into flames was "not something anybody at '60...
Dennis Prager, in The PublicInterest (Summer 1993), 1112 16th St. N.W., Ste. 530, Washing- ton, D.C. 20036.

The intellect and greatness of Aristotle (384- 322 B.c.) spanned many fields; but he seldom is regarded as the father of modern science. That honor usually goes to Francis Bacon (1561-1626), who denounced Aristotle's meta- physics and influence. Yet the credit for estab- lishing genuine empirical science should go to Aristotle, contends Dunbar, a biological an- thropologist at University College, London. In the philosopher's...
