The book offers what it states. A guide to do broadcasting journalism with the heart. I do not mean doing soap operas, but deep reports with meaning and feelings. My type of journalism.
I bought it because it is required for a class of my Master's program but I was so happy when I received it because it is fantastic. I had read the first chapter for free online, and I was desperate waiting for the hard copy to arrive. The book is really what I expected and more. It has a heart.
I am grateful for the book and for so many experiences hared, brought my memories and my experiences back.
Muchas gracias,
M.
