Northeast Suburban Life (Newspaper) - January 18, 1978, Cincinnati, Ohio2 suburban use wednesday january a 1978the Hions den9 tales in which we done to talk about the weather life l suburban on the scene with Maureen Hehman Why i Ever agreed to moderate a p a n e 1 discussion on. First amendment rights with Simon lets Hamilton county prosecutor Benson Wolman executive director of the Ohio american civil liberties Union and investigative reporter Gerald White i will never know. I Quot guess 1 Felt obligated since i am chairwoman of the Freedom of information committee of women in communications the 5roup that put on the discussion Jan 5. It was supposed to be a discussion out turned into something of a debate. White did not show up and it became a one on one situation the first amendment is. Simon lets. I gave an obligatory talk before the match about recent events concerning the press and first amendment rights such As Ngn gag rules confidentiality of sources privacy and Sunshine rules. It was rather Boring. Everybody was waiting for the main event. Leis went in fighting in his opening remarks. Challenging the press and citing incidents where it had not come Forward with information vital to criminal trials. Benson Wolman Quot hosted up the whole discussion by jumping immediately to what everyone wanted to talk about anyway the Hustler "0 Calcutta a incidents. To Imp a attacked leis prosecution of these and said it has made the Community a leis rebounded quickly and the fight was on. To toll you the truth i was sitting Between the two men tension Alley and i done to remember a lot of specifics. 1 do remember a contrast in manner leis dressed rather nastily in a three piece Grey Tweed suit with White on Black Small polka Dot tie. He has a face that would appear at Home under a hard hat. Or behind the speaker of a cd radio. Leis is a fighter. He angers easily particularly when being attacked on his obscenity prosecutions. He is emotional almost impassioned in Bis defense of these. Wolman rather slight of build glasses owlish intellectual egg head appearance was deceptive and after the jugular. He spoke articulately and piqued leis constantly asking him such things As whether he leis had committed any. Deviate sexual behaviour after seeing the Hustler and 0 Calcutta material. These kinds of remarks hit the Mark angering leis As i am sure Wolman knew they would. Occasionally the tension would break with leis or Wolman laughing at a remark of the other. In a. Nutshell the arguments went this Way Lem he is just upholding the Laws made by other government bodies his prosecution of pornography has helped keep Cincinnati clean and wholesome unlike some other big cities he does not spend an undue amount of time and Money on prosecution of this kind he has letters and information which Quot prove that pornography has led to sexual assaults the people of Hamilton county generally approve of his official behaviour or they vote for him. He also cited the High number of favourable letters to the editor in the daily papers after he prosecuted Larry Flynt. Wolman and some audience member Why spend time and taxpayer Money on a victimless crime Why choose to make such prosecutions of High priority Why try to ten adults what they can see and read Why was �?o0 Calcutta stopped Only after tickets had been sold leis said he believed theatre people would police themselves and cited liquor and nudity in the same building As a violation of the Law although leis rightly enough pointed out that a jury not he decides if a matter is obscene Wolman said that leis must first decide to move on a prosecution of this kind. He must decide what in his mind is possibly obscene and therefore admissible to a grand jury. This kind of prosecution tends to inhibit free expression Wolman said. And the argument went on. With me stuck in the Middle. I know the faults of the newspaper Media now in a learning some faults of the to Media. I appeared in a film clip and Story about the a a debate that evening on the 11 o clock news. The newscaster not Only did no to identify me he also Cut me in half when i stood up within camera Range. Maybe the Channel 9 camera Man who covered the debate was getting even with me. 1 insisted on having a speakers Rostrum at the table Over his objections. That was a wild week for me. The Friday before new years eve i was Busy making up the Jan. 4 edition of the paper. 1 walked past someone who was pasting up a Page and whoosh he made a backward motion with his hand the one in which he held the razor Sharp exact knife it caught me and sunk in to the Hilt. I guess it s like seeing someone slip on a banana Peel it seems hilarious to onlookers. Everyone in the composing mom where we compose papers not music laughed until they realized i had really been Hurt. I after temporarily staunching the puncture and after putting the paper to bed about four or five hours later i wound up in emergency care getting mopped up and needled. 1 Hadnot realized what a hazardous occupation this is coincidentally the very Nice nurse who took care of me turned out to be a Montgomery resident Jane Newberry whose husband is a teacher at Sycamore Junior.
