Title: You should have been here yesterday
Description: "A generation of television viewers grew up watching Garrick Utley as he trekked to the far reaches of the earth for NBC News. What is life as a foreign correspondent really like? It it all glamour and adventure? In this wise and witty memoir, Utley reveals what life is like behind the camera. He takes us from the battlefields of Vietnam to the backwaters of Belize, from communist Russia to revolutionary Rhodesia, in search of the most riveting, most important news stories out there.".

"But Utley's story is far more than a personal memoir - it's a history of network news. Utley reflects, in particular, on how the correspondent's role has shifted as centralized control, advanced technologies, "infotainment," and profit margin have altered the way television networks operate and television news is reported.

Packaged with a 30-minute CD-ROM of memorable Utley reports and dramatic footage from the heyday of network news, You Should Have Been Here Yesterday is an indispensable tour of the business and excitement of television news."--BOOK JACKET.
