COVER: Q&A: Nightline's TED KOPPEL asks all the right questions. Cover: Photo by Douglas Kirk land-Sygma.

TOP OF THE WEEK [Major Top Stories]:
ALL THE RIGHT QUESTIONS: ABC News's "Nightline" is on a roll this year, boastingastring of exclusive interviews like the one last month with Jim and Tammy Bakker. The show increasingly breaks news at night that other media scramble to follow, and its anchor, Ted Koppel, has never been better. Koppel has an almost preternatural instinct for asking the right questions-and these days, he is asking some tough ones of himself as well. Society: Page 50.

FED SHAKE-UP: Suddenly, Paul Voicker, the nation's most powerful economic policymaker, was out. Conservative economist Alan Greenspan was in. NEWSWEEK looks at how the White House orchestrated the switch-and what it means for the nation's economy. National Affairs: Page 16.

SHRINE ON: American art collectors are turning away from bequests to museums to create their own shrines, such as the new Menu Collection that just opened in Houston. The Arts: Page 68.

THE BATTLE AGAINST AIDS: Hundreds of the world's lead- ing AIDS researchers spent last week conferring in Washing- ton. No true breakthroughs against the deadly virus were reported-only many signifi- cant small steps. Public atten- tion turned to AIDS testing as President Reagan called for routine screening. But there are still more questions than answers on this controversial issue. Lifestyle: Page 60 PUTTING FAITH IN TRENDS: Who is Faith Popcorn? And why are corporations paying her top dollar to predict the future? The ultimate tread setter, Popcorn is a walking, talking crystal ball. She has forecast everything from the fall of New Coke to the rise of "cocooning." But critics say that the trend-forecasting industry peddles yesterday's news. Business: Page 46.
