An Inclusive Litany

1/26/98

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.
