Health reform draws battlelines on Hill
Employer mandate at the heart of issue
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The battle in Congress over health reform began yesterday in a House subcommittee. Democrats turned back a Republican attempt to kill a proposal to force all businesses to pay for workers' health insurance.
The employer mandate is the keystone to achieving universal coverage in the bill, a diluted version of the Clinton health reform plan that was drafted by Rep. Pete Stark, D-Callif, chair of the Ways and Means health subcommittee.
By a 6-5 vote, the panel rejected a GOP amendment to scrap the mandate and require businesses to offer health insurance, but not to pay for it.
Rep. Fred Grandy, R-Iowa, said the Democrats' "one-size-fits-all" approach to health reform would cost jobs, especially because Stark's plan provided no subsidies for small businesses.
Six of the panel's seven Democrats closed ranks to reject the amendment. Rep.Mike Andrews,D-Texas, a cosponsor of managed competition legislation, sided with the Republics.
Rep. John Lewis, D-Ga., called the amendment "a dagger in the heart of the deal."
But Rep. Bill Thomas, R-Calif, the panel's ranking Republican, rejoined, "It is a dagger at the heart of small business. ... This is the mother of all entitlements, cradle-to-grave health insurance paid for by business — if
you can get it."
Republicans bristled when Rep. Sander Levin, D-Mich., accused them of offering "no constructive alternative. . . You say if millions of Americans are left out, so be it."
The Republicans said they would offer their own full-fledged health reform alternatives after the panel considered amendments to Stark's plan. Their bills stop short of guaranteeing universal coverage but would overhaul insurance laws and provide subsidies for the poor and near-poor.
Stark needs to hold that six-member bloc together to get his plan or any other Democratic bill through the subcommittee.
The same Democrats also defeated, 6-5, a proposal by Rep. Jim McCrery, R-La., to let all workers deduct from taxes their 20 percent share of premiums while requiring those with above-average benefits to pay income taxes on them.
Rep. Jim McDermott, D-Wash., served notice that he wants Stark's benefit package sweetened, and Levin said he favored a one-year delay on the employer mandate.
The Stark bill would require large employers to pay 80 percent of the cost of health insurance for their workers starting in 1995. Small employers with 100 or fewer workers would have until 1997; they could buy private insurance or enroll their workers in a new Medicare program for the poor and uninsured.
"Employer-paid health insurance is a myth. Any mandate on employers would be shifted to employees through reduced wages or loss of jobs," said Alain C. Enthoven, a Stanford University professor.
Poll: Americans favor some limits on media
First Amendment specialists said the results did not surprise them because journalists did a poor job educating the public about the value of a free press.
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Most Americans say they favor a free press but think that the government should be able to restrict reporting about military secrets, terrorist activities, violence and explicit sex, a new poll shows.
A solid majority of Americans, 65 percent, said they generally opposed restricting what newspapers and television stations can report; 29 percent said they favored such restrictions. The findings were similar in Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Mexico, Spain and the United Kingdom.
Firm majorities in most of the other countries also favored such specific restrictions.
But when asked about specifics, 69 percent of the U.S. respondents said the government should be able to restrict reporting to protect military secrets, 60 percent would allow limits on reporting to discourage terrorism, 59 percent to restrict mentions of explicit sex and 52 percent to control portraits of "unnecessary violence."
the opinions of U.S. residents were largely in line with those of residents of Mexico, Canada and five European nations, who also were surveyed by The Times Mirror Center For The People & The Press.
Paul McMasters, executive director of the Freedom Forum First Amendment Center at Vanderbilt University, said he was not surprised.
"Most Americans believe that they believe in a free press, but when it comes right down to it, they really don't," McMasters said in a telephone interview. "That's sad because most Americans appear to be willing to give up quite willingly freedoms that have been fought for long and hard."
The noll also found:
But McMasters, who is also national president of the Society of Professional Journalists, warned against pandering to readers by giving them "what they want rather than what they need. The popular press never was meant to be popular. If we strive after more popularity rather than relevance, then we are in trouble."
-68 percent of Americans think that newspaper reporting about politics and social issues is one-sided. That compares to 81 percent in France and Italy, and 48 percent in Germany.
Boyd and Martin said Spurling, a skilled model maker and the last surviving conspirator, told them he built the model for the 1934 photograph at Wetherell's request, the newspaper said.
—44 percent of Americans say newspaper accounts are often inaccurate.

Loch Ness monster photo was hoax, researchers say
—Despite the criticisms, nearly seven of every 10 Americans say the media help keep politicians honest and 74 percent say the press is a "good influence" on society.

Findings specific to the United States were based on telephone interviews with 1,494 adults in early January. The U.S. poll has a margin of error of plus-or-minus three percentage points.
The London weekly newspaper said Boyd and Martin learned that Wilson was part of a hoax hatched by his friend Marnaduke Wetherell, a filmmaker and self-styled big game hunter hired by the Daily Mail in 1933 to hunt Nessie. Witherell's son and stepson Christian Spurling were also in on the hoax.

The photograph, depicting a sea beast with a hump back and long neck, was attributed to Robert Wilson, an eminent London gynecologist. He said he took it April 19, 1934, after his companion saw a commotion in the water and shouted: "My God, it's the monster!"
"It's a breakthrough" in the scientific research, said David Cotton, chief general manager of the Loch Ness Center at Drummadrochit, which welcomes tourists to an exhibition on research and theories about the "monster."

The hoax has not dealt a fatal blow to those who seek the truth behind the Loch Ness legend — or those who profit from the world's curiosity.
LONDON — The purported Loch Ness monster pictured in a famous 1934 photo was just a toy submarine fitted with a fake sea-serpent head, two Loch Ness researchers say.
"The head has always been a wild card to us. ... It was the only sighting of its sort and always caused us enormous problems," he said yesterday.
"Our resident biologists have never been happy about this."

Researchers Alastair Boyd and David Martin claim one of the conspirators in the hoax told them about it just before he died in November at the age of 90. The Sunday Telegraph newspaper reported.

Some researchers used the picture to back claims that Nessie is descended from plesiosaurs, large reptiles with small heads and long necks that died out 65 million years ago.
