Description
The story of ITN?s fifty year history is the story of television news. From an early remit to provide just twenty minutes of news coverage a day, to the 24-hour news revolution ITN has been intimately involved, every step of the way. Featuring the big names of news broadcasting like Robin Day, Alastair Burnet, Trevor MacDonald and Jon Snow, Richard Lindley tells a story of clashing egos as ITN reporters fought their competitors at the BBC, the wavering financial commitment of ITV and each other to establish a pioneering news provider.
