Tóm tắt: | In this unique blend of shop talk, exposition, anecdote and concrete example, two practicing newsmen take us inside the news business to show us how it works - on the air and in print. Each is an acknowledged master in his field, and their book has the easy authority, the authenticity and liveliness that proceed from hands-on experience and undimmed enthusiasm. In these pages, John Chancellor, commentator for NBC's "Nightly News," and Pulitzer Prize winner Walter R. Mears, vice-president and Washington bureau chief of the Associated Press, share their profound knowledge of their calling. Beyond this, they have produced a book that is itself a sterling instance of practicing what is preached. In organization, pacing and felicity of style, "The News Business" mirrors the structure and method of a successful news story. Its chapters move from the initial decision making (what events will be covered and which emphasized) through the all-important first sentence, or lead, to the body of the story and its essentials: deft use of illuminating detail, adroit analysis, precise wording, scrupulous treatment of sources and on to getting the story delivered. The last chapter offers the aspiring journalist hard-nosed but optimistic advice on starting out. Filled with inner-circle lore, great humor and irresistible zest, "The News Business" has the interest and charm of a skilled conversationalist at ease in a subject he knows and loves. |
