Recenzje

"This is a volume of extraordinary value. Its thoroughness as a textbook on all the elements of television news production is destined to make it a standard for journalism classrooms everywhere. As a guide for practicing television journalists, it is destined to be found in television newsrooms nationwide.
 
Additionally, for the many news viewers who are curious or perhaps are skeptical or critical about the day's news reports, here is a rare look at how the judgments are made that will determine the news they will see. The working producers and editors will hang this volume in their news rooms as constant reminders of their obligations to assure the accuracy and fairness that are the fundamentals of good journalism."
—Walter Cronkite
