520 _aWhile talking heads debate the media's alleged conservative or liberal bias, this author feels that the problem with television news is all about the money. As someone who has worked as both an Emmy-winning broadcast reporter and a network executive, Anderson details how bottom-line thinking places more value on a telegenic face than on substantive reporting. She claims that as news executives employ tactics from the entertainment industry, they betray not only the viewers' right to know, but also, ultimately, the networks' own financial health.
520 1 _a"From illegal hiring practices to ethnocentric coverage to political cheerleading, News Flash exposes how American broadcast conglomerates' pursuit of the almighty dollar consistently trumps the need for fair and objective reporting." "As someone who has worked as both a broadcast reporter and a network executive, Bonnie Anderson details how the networks have been co-opted by bottom-line thinking that places more value on a telegenic face than on substantive reporting." "This reckless pursuit of the bottom line not only betrays the American people but is also ultimately bad news for the networks' own financial health. Anderson instead offers a path that will both ensure the continuing relevance of network news and shore up democracy itself, enabling Americans to make well-informed decisions about how to exercise their rights and responsibilities as citizens."--BOOK JACKET.
