5. Media Coverage, 1987-1988

The material in this series offers a more objective report of campaign news, events, and popular perception throughout the course of the campaign. The bulk of this series consists of press clippings (Boxes 15-21), sorted daily, from all over the country. An index of newspaper and magazine articles compiled by Dr. R. Wayne Anderson of Northeastern University's Oral History Office is included with the control file. The "Next President" is a one-time publication giving background on all of the 1988 candidates. The foreign media reaction (Box 22, Folders 1109-1162) offers an international point of view on the campaign. See Appendix A (Series V. Sources) for an alphabetical listing of media sources.
