After four decades of working in newsrooms big and small, Margaret Sullivan traces her life in journalism and how trust in the mainstream press has steadily eroded.
What The Reviewers Say
It’s hard to argue with Sullivan’s news judgment.
Sullivan has avoided the traps for the most part, combining highlights and lowlights of her glass-ceiling-defying career with an opinionated but fair and accessible tour of the big debates roiling the 'reality-based press'.
A brisk—often too brisk—combination of professional memoir and essay in media criticism that juxtaposes Sullivan’s journalistic autobiography with expanded thoughts on some of the most central themes and topics of her media columns.
Beguiling.
