'Guts ... and Genius': Daniel Schorr's Lifetime in Journalism

摘要

Veteran reporter and award-winning commentator Daniel Schorr, talking about his new book at the Library on June 7, recalled a one-word prescription for success as a broadcast journalist: Sincerity. Mr. Schorr said a young producer gave him one piece of advice 48 years ago, when he first started in the television business: "Sincerity is the key. If you can fake that. ..." His Library audience responded with laughter, as it did throughout his speech, as Mr. Schorr recalled moments from a life in journalism.
