"It's a technique familiar from B-grade crime movies-- the guy who happens to have already died is the guy who did it."

# Murrow Lives! --

And, finally, George H. Lesser expresses a very credible argument to revive the U.S. Information Agency which Congress killed in 1999. Could we revive Edward R. Murrow, who ran it, too? No, huh? Murrow was a hard act to follow. Anyone trying to run that agency would probably be compared to him. Maybe he was an impossible act to follow, and that in itself was the final death sentence for his agency.
