"NewsHour with Jim Lehrer"
ProPublica editor-in-chief Paul Steiger said on Tuesday's "NewsHour" show:
* "I know what my news budget is going to be for the next three years, whereas in the environment of even a great newspaper like the Wall Street Journal, every few months the estimates of revenues would change."
* "What could be better than '60 Minutes' [to air ProPublica's first story] with an audience on a slow weekend in June of 10 million and in a strong weekend during football season in the fall of 20 million or 25 million?"
