Zaino, Gene, 1985

 File — Box: 120, Folder: 14

Scope and Content

From the Sub-Series:

Much of this correspondence dates from the early and mid-1990s and was dictated from Florida by LGH but not read. They consist primarily of brief notes to individuals without substantive information pertaining to broadcasting.

The alphabetical subject files are often of a personal nature, relating to households and personal expenses. Their contents are evident from the container list.

Howard Hughes correspondence consists mainly of telegrams in support of LGH efforts to block Hughes obtaining controlling interest of ABC stock. LGH’s thank you correspondence is also included. Of interest is a summary of issues concerning Howard Hughes, making special note of syphilis.

Stations

These files date from the late 1990s and do not appear to have been copied to LGH, nor is he mentioned. In general the files are scant, particularly those on specific television programs. Principal correspondents in these files are: Mike Mallardi; Daniel Burke; Jim Long; and Steven Burke. There are some notes on various sheets. Files are duplicates either faxed, emailed or photocopied. An interesting note from Peter Jennings briefly discusses coverage of the O.J. Simpson trial.

Unprocessed material from Part 3 primarily consists of financial data and reports from businesses in which LGH held interests.
