THE Turner Broadcasting System considered, but rejected, plans to run commercials that resemble segments of news interview programs on its CNN and Headline News cable television networks. Since CNN began operations in 1980, followed by Headline News a year later, Turner's policies have prohibited carrying sales pitches that imitate programming. The rationale was that viewers might be confused because such paid messages could blur the line between news content and advertising.

The picture would be painful under any circumstances, but there is a twist of the knife: the young man was in Somalia as part of an effort to feed people. In reflections written after the Marine landing in December and published on the Op-Ed page of The New York Times last Thursday, George F. Kennan blamed television for the surge of support for what was insistently described at the time as a humanitarian mission. "The reaction was an emotional one," he wrote, "occasioned by the sight of the suffering of the starving people in question." Now the emotions aroused by a new picture and the deaths it represents are putting pressure on the Administration to end the mission that began with such acclaim less than a year ago.
