Recenzii

"I like it. I use it. Hewitt wrote a good introductory book as it uses large font and accessible language.. .the text emphasizes terminology that is necessary to work and understand broadcast news. Other texts do not. It offers a comprehensive way of teaching broadcast news, but it needs to be visually and textually updated. I am eager for a new edition, and I am likely to assign the book for my class." - Geri Alumit Zeldes, Michigan State U (9)
"This is a book that takes away the 'fear' of broadcast writing. It is delightful to read and easy to follow." - Andrew A. Moemeka, Central Connecticut State University
"Layout is not bad. The writing section is awesome in terms of step by step teaching... .the package chapter not so much so (but it is hard to mix production/writing). The two real weak points that would keep me from switching are the audio report problems (needs updatingELhe is talking about carts which died out back in the mid-90's) and the lack of reference to web. My last two reporters have been hired as multi-media reporters even though they only do a little web work but we at least need a text with some introduction to the idea. With changes suggested... yes [I would adopt]." - Pamela Doyle Tran, U of Alabama (8)
"I am very happy with the Hewitt book, because it does function well in my class. I can give half the class an exercise to do from the book while I work in an adjacent studio with the other half of the class on production techniques. I would describe its approach as straight-forward and hands-on, with more emphasis on doing than on theory. I believe its main strengths are the number and variety of the exercises. Perhaps the weakness would be that the exercises may be a little generic. I believe the Hewitt book is a good example of the importance of learning by doing. The book gives enough explanation to stimulate thought, then reinforces the thought with practice. I believe a new edition could be made a bit m
