Peter Jennings on ABC's "World News Tonight," January 14, 1998:
Finally from us this evening, the Governor who gets it. We've known
for a long time that the Governor of Georgia, Zell Miller, is
committed to a better education for kids.... This was part of his
budget message to the Georgia legislature this week. The Governor was
playing a bit of Beethoven there by way of convincing legislators to
pay for a music CD for every Georgia baby so that babies could hear
classical music from the very beginning.... He is so right and every
study confirms it.... Give a child music and you get a better,
brighter child.
