Getting started in broadcast journalism can be daunting but this book offers a great overview with some peachy examples of what not to do. Not recommended for anyone already working in broadcast, but excellent for beginners.

Fantastic product. I recently started to work in a pivotal role in a leading broadcast newsroom. This authentic book has given me an edge and appreciation, and helped me to 'find my feet' in what can be a very hectic exciting environment. Maybe one day I'll write one similar.
