5.0 out of 5 stars
Required for baseball fans and broadcasters,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Broadcasters (A Da Capo paperback) (Paperback)
I broadcast baseball, minor and major league for 20 years (also football and basketball) and at the same time taught Broadcast Sports at the University of North Texas, Denton, Texas. Red Barber's The Broadcasters was my only text. He put together in the first page of his sixth chapter the entire philosophy of broadcasting: sports, news whatever. His six serving-men for the play-by-play profession should be read frequently by professionals and required for beginners. His six are:"preparation, evaluation, concentration, curiosty, impartiality and if such can be achieved, imperturbability." I wrote him trying to locate his paperback publisher (our bookstore couldn't find it) and he replied with the information and typically in his precise reporting told me there was an error on a certain page but would be corrected in the next printing! The Broadcasters is a remarkable history and all you need to pursue a sports broadcasting career. At least all you need to read! Bill Mercer
