For a military establishment acutely conscious of its vulnerability to post-cold-war budget cutters, the landing at Mogadishu was the ultimate photo opportunity. But having finally secured an elusive spotlight, the marines discovered that they had too much of a good thing.

The troops landing in Somalia yesterday jumped from their rubber boats and headed into the dunes -- and into the glare of television lights. More than 75 reporters and camera crews were waiting on the beach with microphones on and videotape rolling. The pictures they beamed to American viewers had the smoothly produced look of a made-for-television drama, with everything from distant shots of soldiers clambering ashore to close-ups of their camouflage uniforms as the troops made their way through the sand, and through the horde of journalists.

"We're told they were not amused," Mr. Brokaw remarked.

For a Princeton student, the scene must have been jarring. On a stage normally occupied by tweedy professors lecturing about Keynesian economics, four women -- Linda Wells, editor of Allure magazine; Alisa Bellettini, producer of MTV's "House of Style" fashion program; Cindy Crawford, the top fashion model, and Camille Paglia, the author of "Sexual Personae" -- sat under the blaze of television camera lights Saturday and discussed beauty.
