OCT. 11-17: Political Prodding Suspected; State Department Rushed To Search Clinton Records
Date: 18 October 1992
By Eric Schmitt

The State Department said last week that it had violated its own regulations by taking a routine request from news organizations for Bill Clinton's consular records and giving the search undue urgency. A State Department spokesman, Richard Boucher, initially defended the department's response, saying that journalists had wanted a timely answer to requests for Mr. Clinton's visa, passport, draft and citizenship papers. The Government, which receives more than 4,000 such requests for information a year, typically responds on a first-come, first-served basis. The next day, Mr. Boucher said that "low-level" State Department officials had erred by expediting the request, which is rarely done.

By Wednesday morning the phrase had already made its way from politics to the populace. A trucker in Maryland was asked by a reporter if he had ever broken the regulations on hours driven without rest. "No," said the trucker, and then caught himself. "Well, I don't want to pull a Clinton here. Truth is, I have broken them sometimes."

CAROLCO SUFFERS SETBACK IN ITS REORGANIZATION

Carolco Pictures Inc. has suffered another setback in its reorganization effort by missing a bond interest payment. The film company said yesterday that it had failed to make its interest payment Thursday on $49.6 million principal amount of its 10 percent debentures of 2006. The terms of the bonds provide a 30-day grace period for the payment. "This is as close as the company has ever been to bankruptcy," said John Levin, analyst with Credit Research. "Even if it makes this payment, Carolco will probably miss its Dec. 1 payment. The company needs a fix, such as a large equity investment." Carolco also said that it could not pay dividends on its preferred stock. Also yesterday, Standard & Poor's lowered its rating on Carolco's senior debt to CC from CCC-.
