How is Clarence Thomas doing at his Supreme Court confirmation hearings? One of the best ways to find out will be to watch television, especially the Public Broadcasting Service's live, gavel-to-gavel coverage. It started yesterday morning and continues this week and next. Viewers will see and hear more than just the nominee. They'll also be able to decide how the Senate Judiciary Committee is doing. Which Senators are probing, which are posturing, which are filibustering? Which ask the most sensible questions? Viewers will be well advised to keep watching after the nominee finishes testifying, to hear the witnesses for and against him.

As Jeffrey Dahmer's defense attorney ponders the advantages of an insanity plea for the confessed murderer of 17 people, one unforgettable image stands in sharp contrast: Mr. Dahmer rationally, convincingly telling the Milwaukee police that Konerak Sinthasomphone, a 14-year-old Laotian boy, was his adult lover. Last week, two of the officers were dismissed and one was suspended for their handling of the situation, and their cavalier dismissal of Glenda Cleveland, the black woman who questioned why they returned a naked, bruised Asian boy to his attacker. Though much has been said about the bias of these police officers toward the black and gay communities, there has been virtually no recognition of their racism toward Asians.
