- Abstract
LEAD: THE NEWSPAPER BILLBOARD I sighted on my last drive to Johannesburg's Jan Smuts Airport bore the message ''Evicted U.S. Newsman Regarded as Hostile.'' I was, in fact, being expelled by a Government that no longer wished me to chronicle its country's internal struggle. But hostile? Had I been hostile to South Africa in my three years as chief of The Times's bureau in Johannesburg, then surely that last ride along the freeway would have been laden with relief.
