DO journalists know what is really going on? Oh, they cover Congress like a blanket and on occasion the President can't even get a haircut without headlines.

Superheroes and supervillains, cutesy animals and karate-kicking kids -- from Popeye to Scooby Doo, the latest American television export to be pumped into worldwide circulation is children's programming. Hoping to match the international success of the Cable News Network and MTV, the nation's top purveyors of children's shows are racing to expand into a still-developing global marketplace with more than $100 billion in potential revenue.

Leon Zitrone, a popular news broadcaster on French television for 30 years, died of a brain hemorrhage on Saturday. He was 81. Mr. Zitrone, who was born in Russia, became a household name as a news anchor in the 1960's, when television was still a novelty for millions of French families. The events he covered over the years included the annual Bastille Day parade, de Gaulle's funeral and the marriage of the Prince of Wales to Lady Diana Spencer. He also commented on sports events, including the Tour de France cycling race, horse racing and figure skating, and was known for improvised interviews, genial rather than combative, with political figures.

Senator Bob Dole of Kansas, the majority leader, chose not to make a formal, nationally televised response to President Clinton's Bosnia speech tonight, though he agreed to do two brief interviews. He did not have a Republican position to present, and he had no incentive to offer his own opinions even though no other Congressional view matters as much as his. As Senate leader, Mr. Dole controls the calendar. As a wounded World War II veteran, he commands respect on issues of war and peace in the Senate, where the old-fashioned internationalism that spread from Wall Street Republicans in the late 1930's to Main Street in the 1950's is still alive, and NATO remains a concept of consequence.
