Editorial Reviews

Review

"They are at their best as they amble through four decades of the most memorable moments in television coverage, from Richard Nixon's 'Checkers' speech of 1952 to the old guard's attempted coup in the Soviet Union in 1991. As a compilation of images and episodes, this book is a feast. They do make some fascinating observations. These authors have given us a welcome reminder of how deeply we have been touched by television news, and they encourage us to recall episodes that go beyond their own book." The New York Times

Book Description

An episodic history of the revolutionary effect of television news reporting on politics, current events and the print media over the past four decades combines research and analysis with personal as well as professional experiences.
