We credit these guys with being smart enough to take a very successful idea and to transmit it to another medium. Producers Approach Tabloid Several Hollywood television producers have approached Enquirer executives about the prospect of filming episodes reported in the tabloid, according to a Los Angeles public relations firm representing the newspaper. In Lantana, which is near Palm Beach, Cameron confirms the claim: There are active talks going on between people in this building and people in Hollywood. Theres a lot of interest in Hollywood as to what the Enquirer has to offer in the way of material. The Dec. 9 issue includes a photo feature on a woman who water skis by standing on the chests of two men who are being pulled through Cypress Gardens on their backs. It also includes tips from Hollywood1 stars on staying thin, and a claim that actress Sophia Loren had secret surgery to save her marriage 46 Reporters on Payroll The paper, sold mostly in grocery stores, spends $16.5 million a year gathering information, according to company figures. Forty-sireporters are on the By Ken Klein Associated Press Writer LANTANA, Fla. (AP) Inspired by the success of Real People, That's Incredible and other such shows, National Enquirer executives say they want to syndicate a video version of their nationally circulated tabloid. "We are hoping to present a television show which is an exact replica of the best of what the National Enquirer does in print," says Haydon Cameron, senior staff editor. "There is a very real chance that within the next six months, we will have a (television) pilot and hopefully the pilot will lead to a series. Cameron, a British journalist who has worked for the Enquirer since 1974, says that managers of the tabloid discussed video syndication as early as 1975, but that the proposal seemed too risky then. Didnt Have Facts We didnt have the facts and figures to show that the American people would go for it (National Enquirer) in video the same way they do in print," he said from Enquirer headquarters in Lantana. "Now, we have the validation. The acid test has been done by Real People and Thats Incredible. "Real People, on the air since the spring g.' 1979, broadcasts offbeat profiles of folks not ordinarily seen on traditional news shows. The show, which receives up to 25,000 letters a week, spawned a new payroll Starting salaries for reporters die year Editors start at $00,0(10 Before the Enquirer would authorize distribution of a spinoff television show, the tabloids owner, Generoso Pope Jr , would insist on retaining control of the program's content My publishers big fear is that well find bright people who, in their own wisdom, want to produce a show my publisher feels is schlock, Cameron says His key question is He wants control over whats going on, and, given that you have to rely on other peoples ability to put that show on, can we make that marriage work? The main motivation for the Enquirers possible venture into video production seems to be its zeal for increased circulation In recent years, new publications such as People and US magazines have made the tabloid industry increasingly competitive Meanwhile, the Enquirers circulation has declined Circulation peaked at 6 9 million the week after Elvis Presley died in 1977 A year later, 6 7 million people bought copies of the Enquirers anniversary edition honoring the late singer During a typical week in 1980, nearly 5.2 million buyers pay 40 cents for the colorful tabloid. We are not looking to make money on a television show," Cameron says. We are looking to draw more attention to the print version of the National Enquirer to sell more copies. x Tools and a stereo and speakers valued at about $1,900 were stolen from a semi-trucbelonging to Larry L.
