摘要:In spite of the flood of literature dealing with American television networks, the evening anchors, and prime-time personalities, little has been written about "the foot soldier of network news." Live from the Trenches fills that gap, providing the first examination of television news correspondents and their work, with much of the analysis coming from the correspondents themselves.
