Peter S. Kalikow, owner of The New York Post, said yesterday that he intended to make an offer to acquire the bankrupt Daily News, a move that is said to have the financial backing of the Bankers Trust Company. The announcement raises the curtain on the formal effort to find a buyer for The News, a process that could become a complex bidding war in which representatives of the paper's owners, unions and creditors weigh competing offers and try to agree on a deal that will probably require sacrifices by all the parties.

A Senate special counsel investigating how Anita F. Hill's sexual harassment accusations against Judge Clarence Thomas were disclosed to the press sought today, unsuccessfully, to make a Newsday reporter tell how be obtained the information for the first published account of the allegations. The account by the reporter, Timothy M. Phelps, along with a report by a National Public Radio reporter, Nina Totenberg, prompted the extraordinary reopening of Senate hearings last fall on Judge Thomas's fitness to serve on the Supreme Court. The full Senate ultimately confirmed him on a vote of 52 to 48.

Leaks Nobody Needs to Find
Date: 13 February 1992
The Senate today plunges blindly into a showdown with journalists over leaks from its Judiciary and Ethics committees. Reporters have been subpoenaed for testimony they will not give to senators who don't need it. It's almost too late to pull back from this senseless and dangerous incursion on First Amendment rights. Timothy Phelps of Newsday has been summoned to appear today and Nina Totenberg of National Public Radio to appear next week before the Senate Rules Committee. They're wanted for questioning about their reports last fall that Anita Hill had complained of sexual harassment by Clarence Thomas, the Supreme Court nominee. Their reports forced an embarrassed Judiciary Committee to reopen confirmation hearings.

In an extraordinary act of deference by a supposedly independent press, Japan's news establishment voluntarily brought down the curtain today on one of the best stories of the decade: the fruitless search for a bride by Japan's most eligible bachelor, Crown Prince Naruhito. Bowing to the Imperial Household Agency, which runs the affairs of Emperor Akihito and his family, the Japan Newspaper Association agreed to stop writing about the search for a bride for at least three months, apparently accepting the notion that the coverage was sabotaging the search itself.

The Paine Webber Group said yesterday that it would repurchase 3.88 million common shares from the Yasuda Mutual Life Insurance Company of Japan for $22 a share, or a total of $85.34 million. The action follows Yasuda's decision to convert 1.69 million shares of Paine Webber's 7 percent cumulative convertible exchangeable series A voting preferred stock into common.

Yasuda still owns $225 million of the issue, which is convertible into 11.6 million shares of Paine Webber common stock. Paine Webber was unchanged at $22.50 on the Big Board yesterday.
