The image decade : television documentary, 1965-1975 / by Charles Montgomery Hammond, Jr New York: Hastings House, c1981.
Call No: 761 HAMAuthor: Hammond, Charles Montgomery Place: New YorkPublisher: Hastings HousePubDate: c1981PhysDes: 285 p. : ports. ; 25 cmSeries: Communication arts books; Studies in public communicationSubject: CBS ; DOCUMENTARIES ; KENNEDY FAMILY ON TV ; NBC TELEVISION NETWORK ; NEWS PROGRAMMES ; NIXON [RICHARD M.] ON TV ; NON-FICTION PROGRAMMES ; POLITICS AND TV ; SOCIAL PROBLEMS ON TV ; VIETNAM WAR ON TV Summary: "During the volatile years of 1965-1975, television emerged as the single most potent medium for bringing truth to the American public. Unforgettably vivid images and thought-provoking, soul-stirring commentary came right into the living room, creating a new and exciting awareness of world events. Documentary became a form of television that could best speak the truth.
The Image Decade describes the evolution of commercial network relevision news and theme documentary during those turbulent years, offering theory, criticism, history, and practical illustrations. Provocative analyses of the work of outstanding documentary producers and reporters at NBC, CBS and ABC are provided, revealing how these men and women brought the great domestic issues, scientific advances and space explorations, war stories from Vietnam, the Middle East and Northern Ireland, and the successive power struggles in Washington into the American home.
Throughout this period, events both wonderful and terrible took place all over the world. Television was there to capture them, with the result that newsgathering became an essential public service offered by the networks. Television documentary took this service one step further by presenting an innovative visual manifestation of history. With its lively descriptions and informative appraisals, The Image Decade sheds a bright light on the major part television news and documentary has played in our lives." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes index; Bibliography: p. 267-269ISBN: 0803834322 (pbk.); 0803834314LON: 1892916URL status: URL: 'http://-'
