In the five months between Nixon telecasts, policy changes were modest while reactions from critics varied. Agnew attacked the media’s treatment, and analysts say the president’s stance remains essentially the same as six to ten months earlier.

Judge Blackmun called dismissal of William L. Maxwell's 1968 appeal excruciating as the Supreme Court prepares a May 4 reargument.

The piece surveys death-row conditions, precedents, and arguments about deterrence and humane methods, noting ongoing capital cases and political caution in pending rulings.
