This may be of small interest in the
overall situation, but you will recall Lipton's
statement at the Controller's hearing on FBIS
Indonesian satellite coverage. I believe this
clarifies the DDI position. The FBIS satellite
coverage is, in part, to replace radio coverage
currently being lost by poor reception of CIF.

50. LOGNOTE - Executive and Planning Staff, 3 June 1982
I called , DDI/CRES/Requirements and Services STAT
Group , this morning to request further clarification of the STAT
Comptroller's "statement at the budget hearing that DDI had no interest
in FBIS reporting on Indonesia. Dave was surprise by the question
in v r tl)p
rtance attached to Indonesia, but he said he would
ask Iwo is responsible for East Asia, to check it STAT
out and call me back.
called this afternoon to say that he had talked to the analysts STAT
responsible for Indonesia and couldn't understand where the idea
had originated. The analysts consider media monitoring an important,
valuable source of political and economic information and could not
identify anything that FBIS is now doing that they felt was excess
to their needs. Nothing that is being done now should be eliminated,
according to those he had talked to, and indeed, more coverage, if
possible, would be useful.
suggested that a misunderstanding may have arisen with the STAT
Comptroller if the question had been posed as a choice between satellite
monitoring and traditional broadcast monitoring. He said the DDI
analysts support steps, such as satellite monitoring, to ensure continuing
access to media sources in the future. That support for satellite
monitoring could have been misconstrued as a lack of support for
traditional radio broadcast monitoring.
