  • It Takes More Than Good Looks
    Praise for It Takes More Than Good Looks “Wayne Freedman knows how to make a television news story memorable. He tells you how to do it by using as examples stories he told on the air. More than being a solid writer, he’s also a crackerjack producer, interviewer, on-camera talent, photographer and author.” Mervin Block—Television Newswriting Workshop Author, Writing Broadcast News Shorter, Sharper, Stronger: A Professional Handbook “I wish more reporters captured the essence and emotion of a story like Wayne does. I have recommended his book to countless journalism students and young reporters I have met, mentored or hired. Hopefully they’ve learned the best stories are not a list of facts, but a well-crafted tale.” Tracey Watkowski Silva—News Director KFSN-TV/ABC30, Fresno, California “This just might be the first “how to” book for television storytelling. It’s all about attitude. Watch TV in a few years and you’ll quickly see who hasn’t read this book.” David Busse—News Photographer, KABC-TV “As the industry changes and more journalists make the jump from print to television, this should be required reading. It was for me. What better teacher is there?” Cecilia Vega— ABC News Correspondent Former Reporter, San Francisco Chronicle “For TV reporters who want to find and tell better stories, Wayne Freedman provides a terrific road map. He’s one of those rare journalists who both produces excellent work and can explain how he does it. In other words, he’s a gifted teacher. Learn from him!” Deborah Potter—President and Executive Director, Newslab Former CBS News Correspondent “Easy to read.
