Computers in Broadcast and Cable Newsrooms: Producing News Through Automation traces its origins to 1980, when the author began writing about television news technology in an effort to help television news managers cope with technological change. Journalism is tied to technology and today's television news relies on varied and complex technologies to help journalists produce interesting, informative broadcasts. As such this volume takes readers through the use of computers and software in the broadcast/cable newsroom environment. Using a hands-on, practical approach to cover the role computers play in various parts of the newsroom, the volume appeals to graduate or undergraduate students in advanced broadcast/news television courses.
