This now-classic text by an insider, a former writer-producer at CBS News, chronicles the history of broadcast journalism in the U.S. from its beginning in radio through its rise as the most pervasive and powerful news medium.
Edward Bliss Jr. is the editor of In Search of Light: The Broadcasts of Edward R. Murrow, 1938-1961.
"Bliss was there as radio news became of age in World War II and as television news was born. From his vast personal knowledge and prodigious research he has fashioned this fascinating chronicle of broadcast news. It makes good reading and is an invaluable historical resource." -- Walter Cronkite
