Global News : Perspectives on the Information Age, Paperback by Silvia, Tony (EDT); Blitzer, Wolf (FRW), ISBN 0813802563, ISBN-13 9780813802565, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Tom Johnson, Corey Flintoff, Tony Kahn, and Ted Koppel are some of the better known contributors of the 16 essays, some of which were presented at a spring 1998 lecture series at the University of Rhode Island. The anthology is designed as a bridge between working journalists and academics in the field, inspired, says Silvia (journalism, U. of Rhode Island), by a six-month fellowship he served with Cable Network News in 1996. That does not explain, however, nor does he, the 1971 first edition. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
