"Salant, CBS, and the Battle for the Soul of Broadcast Journalism"
tells the story of CBS News during its golden era. The late Richard
S. Salant was president of CBS News for sixteen years throughout
the 1960s and 1970s. He became widely recognized by journalists as
the "patron saint of television news." During his tenure, Salant
confronted issues of enormous importance - Vietnam, the civil
rights movement, and Watergate - and launched the first
thirty-minute E"vening News, CBS Morning News," and "60 Minutes,"
Along the way, he hired Mike Wallace, Roger Mudd, Dan Rather, and
Diane Sawyer. This first-person account, compiled and edited by
Susan and Bill Buzenberg during the years since Salant's death in
1993, is an important part of the history of broadcast journalism,
an inside story of the politicians and journalists who shaped our
recent history, and an eloquent alarm about the current erosion of
broadcast journalism standards.
