Renowned communications scholar at New York University, Postman (1931-2003) and veteran broadcast journalist Powers teamed up to produce the 1992 guide to the critical viewing of television news. Powers incorporates new and updated information and perspectives here, while retaining what his teacher and mentor contributed. First and foremost, they insist, anyone who is not an avid reader of newspapers, magazines, and books is by definition unprepared to watch television news shows, and will always be. For readers who make that cut, they discuss such matters as what news
embroidered patches is, the news director, the bias of language and of pictures, the commercial, television in the courtroom, what a person can do, and what a people can do.
