WATERCOOLER: Behind the Scenes and Off the Record, the Untold Stories from Broadcasters is a collection of short stories from those working in the broadcast media including: Barry Petersen, Dr. Laura Schlessinger, Rita Cosby, Drew Levinson, Tracey Neale, Jennifer Miller, and more. Together they share stories of courage, determination, heartbreak, and inspiration. There is little glamour in a job that requires wadding through filthy flood waters, talking through flying ash, bracing oneself during hurricane winds, and risking life and limb to cover the world’s hotspots. Why do they do it? Most in the business do it to help others: aiding victims during a natural disaster, righting a wrong for the little guy, uncovering untold truths, and bringing viewers with them to dangerous places. In an estimated $65 billion industry no one has covered the reporters themselves, until now. These stories have not been told “on the air,” but rather around the watercooler in newsrooms and in broadcast studios. This impressive collection of stories reveals extraordinary human tragedies and emotional triumphs that speak to the heart in all of us. "This is just fascinating.... It's a fun read and it will give more depth to that two dimensional screen that we watch." Matt West KJFF AM "I think you should read this book." Mike Pintek KDKA AM
