Bob Dotson has been telling the American story for 49 years. How does he do it? Read the book to understand what it takes to make a compelling story using not just lots of cool technology but the gift of storytelling itself. In ancient times, when our ancestors sat around the fire, storytellers were honored members of the tribe. Sill today, it's so important that we share the stories that show our history and humanity. Nobody does that better than Bob Dotson.
The book has been one of the worse books I have ever read regarding media skills. As a professional journalist, I found some of the suggestions in this book more fictional than truth related news gathering.
Thanks goes to Bob Dotson for an incredible must-read for any aspiring journalists, but this edition is also available on Kindle.
