Includes index. Originally published in hardcover by Little, Brown and Company, May 2011.
Miller and Shales's (Live from New York) second book wisely uses an oral history format to tell the inside story of multimedia sports broadcasting giant ESPN. They crafted their long but engaging narrative by interviewing over 550 current and former ESPN broadcasters, executives, and off-air staff who add their own unique insights into the network's 30-year history and illuminate the many behind-the-scenes personality and ego clashes. A few athletes and broadcasting competitors chime in as well. Tony Kornheiser, Chris Berman, Dick Vitale, Jim Rome, Keith Olbermann, and others are candid in both their complaints and compliments. Matt McCarthy, Joan Baker, and coauthor Miller swap unremarkable narration duties.
