New Yorker 1945, May 19 Issue- The Wayward Press - The A.P. Surrender

THE WAYWARD PRESS about the row over Edward Kennedy's A.P. story about the signing of the German surrender at Reims. Defends Kennedy's act: it establishes the "Liebling Law." The willingness of the large American news organizations in the European Theater of Operations to be herded into the new-style combination, in return for favors that independent journalists didn't get, had led directly to the kind of official contempt for the press that the Reims arrangement indicated, with the accompanying view that opportunity to report history was what SHAEF calls a "SHAEF privilege. The A.O. was a leader in establishing this form of organized subservience, and the Jam it now finds itself in is therefore a good illustration of the workings of the Liebling law.
