Israel's General Ariel Sharon. Cover: Photo by Gustavo Feinblatt. TOP OF THE WEEK [Major Top Stories]: WHAT GOOD ARE ECONOMISTS? The American economy performed superbly in 1984, growing at a headlong pace while the inflation rate remained low. But it was another disastrous year for economists, whose forecasts once again were far off the mark-subjecting them to ridicule from the White House and raising new doubts about the value of forecasting. Page 60. REAGAN II: FULL SPEED AHEAD: After presiding over an improvised indoor Inaugural "parade"-a bow to Washington's bitter cold-and squiring the First Lady to nine Inaugural balls, Ronald Reagan turned to second-term business with a vigor that belied his reputation for disengaged leadership. He has dedicated the next four years, he said in his second Inaugural Address, to a "new American Emancipation"-the completion of a political revolution he views as only half finished. Page 18. AN ABSENCE OF MALICE: After 10 weeks, Time magazine won its libel battle with Israel's Ariel Sharon, but the case and two other media trials now under way in New York-one Gen. Wil- liam Westmoreland's suit against CBS- raised new questions about the credibility of the media as a whole. NEWSWEEK'S cover package examines the trial, its impact on the media and the law, and looks at Sharon's political future in Israel. Page 52. A NEW EPIDEMIC: America is in the grip of an unprecedented out- break of sexually transmitted diseases, throwing many people into a panic over infections that have been linked with sterility and cancer. Page 72.
