When you watch the news on TV, you see only what's on the screen. You don't see what happened to make it happen. This new book, by a broadcast news veteran, rips away the curtain and helps you understand the humanity behind the storyteller. Ross Becker began his professional journalism career at a radio station in Wisconsin where he grew up and ended up reporting on some of the biggest stories of the '70s, '80s, '90s, and 2000s. Each story is part of history, and each one taught Becker a lesson about people, life, or politics. He shares those lessons, the ones you didn't see or hear about on the TV screen. He talks about how the tragedies and triumphs he has witnessed affected his life and career, and how the people he met along the way helped him grow, professionally and personally. The stories in this book are what you didn't see on the TV screen when you watched the news.
