THE briefing was impressive. A senior producer tersely reminded researchers and writers that the hijack-hostage story was complex, fast-moving, full of rumors and difficult to substantiate. ''We want facts,'' he said repeatedly. ''Look at that script,'' he added, referring to a report by a former chief of its Beirut bureau. ''Make sure it's accurate. If not, or if it's out of date, let's not use it.''

On the eve of the 40th anniversary of the signing of the United Nations charter in San Francisco, citizens of five major industrialized countries have expressed hopefulness, tempered by disappointment, about the organization, according to a poll by The New York Times, CBS News and the International Herald Tribune. Although few people offered resounding approval or disapproval, hardly anyone in France, West Germany, Britain, Japan or the United States thought the world would be better off without the United Nations. And, except in France, solid majorities said the world was better off with the organization. Even among those who said the United Nations was performing poorly, few wanted to get rid of it. In Japan, for example, even the 5 percent who said the United Nations was doing a ''very poor job'' were 10-1 for the idea that the world was better off with it.

R. Foster Winans, a former WallStreet Journal reporter, was found guilty yesterday of using advance knowledge of Journal articles to make illicit profits in the stock market. Federal District Judge Charles E. Stewart, who heard the case without a jury, also convicted Mr. Winans's two associates: Kenneth P. Felis, a former stockbroker at Kidder, Peabody & Company, and David J. Carpenter, Mr. Winans's longtime roommate and a former news clerk for The Journal. Mr. Winans was found guilty of 59 criminal counts, Mr. Carpenter of 12 counts and Mr. Felis of 41 counts. Mr. Winans and Mr. Felis were convicted of conspiracy to commit securities fraud, among other charges, but Mr. Carpenter was acquitted of that charge. The convictions carry sentences of up to five years in prison for each count as well as fines. Mr. Winans theoretically could be sentenced to as many as 295 years in prison and $266,000 in fines. Mr. Carpenter could receive 60 years in prison and $71,000 in fines, while Mr. Felis could get 205 years and fines of $194,000.

As the hijacking of Flight 847 began to look like another long-running hostage story, someone put to me a question many Americans may be asking: ''Why does this always happen to us and not to the Soviets?'' It's a good question, although Americans are not actually the only or even the usual victims of terrorism. Soviet troops and civilians occupying Afghanistan, for instance, suffer frequent terrorist attacks, albeit from ''freedom fighters.'' Probably most incidents of terrorism stem from religious struggle in Northern Ireland, Basque separatism in Spain and racial conflict in and around the periphery of South Africa. Sikh extremists are already trying to claim responsibility for the Air India plane that apparently exploded Sunday over the Atlantic.

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 26, 1985 International The White House warned of reprisals unless 40 Americans held hostage in Beirut were released in the ''next few days.'' The warning of economic and military sanctions was issued after Reagan Administration officials retreated from a plan considered earlier in the day to take immediate steps against Lebanon, possibly including an economic blockade and efforts to close Beirut International Airport. [Page A1, Column 6.] Pressure on Nabih Berri to take major steps to end the 12-day hostage crisis appeared to be mounting. The predicament of the Lebanese Shiite militia leader heightened when two European ambassadors told him he could face international ostracism for the hostage taking. [A1:5.]

TUESDAY, JUNE 25, 1985 International American warships must withdraw from the Lebanese coast, the Shiite Moslem militia leader, Nabih Berri, demanded as a new condition for release of 40 American hostages. A United States naval flotilla, which includes the aircraft carrier Nimitz, has been sent to the eastern Mediterranian, but the ships are not visible from the coast. [Page A1, Column 6.] Israel freed 31 Lebanese prisoners from a military prison and turned them loose in southern Lebanon. The release of the prisoners left 735 Lebanese and Palestinian detainees still in Israeli hands. [A10:1-2.]

David C. Mulford, an Assistant Treasury Secretary, said today that the United States was not considering issuing any bonds denominated in Japanese yen. At a news conference, he denied an article in a Japanese financial newspaper, Nihon Keizai Shimbun, which said the Treasury had approached Japan's Finance Ministry with a plan to float such bonds, to mature in 10 years, for the equivalent of $1 billion. Mr. Mulford, in Tokyo for a currency meeting, added that the Treasury was not planning any non-dollar borrowing.

The Speaker of the Iranian Parliament, Hojatolislam Hashemi Rafsanjani, denied today that his country had anything to do with hijacking the Trans World Airlines plane and the taking hostage of 40 people in Beirut. ''Iran had no connection whatsoever with this incident and had it known in advance of the hijack and of the identity of the hijackers, it would have prevented it,'' the Speaker told a news conference during a visit here.
