Fighting for Air by Liz Trotta
In this piercing look into the grit and the glamour of television news, award-winning journalist Liz Trotta traces her career from the early days of broadcast news to the slick superficiality of today. The first female television correspondent in Vietnam, Trotta tells the searing truth about being a woman in a male-dominated industry and recounts many of her most fascinating stories, from the scandal of Chappaquiddick to the campaign trail of George Bush. Filled with candid, often stinging assessments of the movers and shakers in the industry, Fighting for Air is the story of an uncompromising woman and of television news coming of age--told from the trenches.
Liz Trotta is the New York Bureau Chief for the Washington Times. A veteran of two decades with NBC News and CBS News, she is the winner of three Emmys and two Overseas Press Club awards. An alumna of the Graduate School of Journalism at Columbia University, Trotta has taught at the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communication and at New York University.
