Editorial Reviews

A textbook for electronic media students heading down the management road. Updated from the previous edition (no date noted) to account for the 1996 Telecommunications Act and the mergers of media giants. The authors, communication academics in midwestern universities, have given up trying to predict the future of the industry as a whole and instead suggest possible directions for each topic.

Booknews

As a former TV news executive and former radio station owner/manager, I can say this book is complete. Anyone going into broadcasting should read this book.
