A town crier walked through the village streets ringing his bell and shouting headlines to the residents - the early kind of journalists, the chief method in isolated American town and villages of delivering the news. His cries were fundamental to good journalism in those times -just delivery of the facts. On any scale in growing cities came larger and filtered down into villages in the form of one-page, hand-operated press, the type set by hand into a chase and the crude paper impressed with the news. Meantime, the town crier continued well into the nineteenth century, replicated by the newsboy who drags his wagon filled with paper and broadcasts the headlines, "ROCK HOUSES PRICE UP...ROCK HOUSES SPRING UP, read all about it!" The Crier rings his bell to alert attention.

"On a hot, sunny day last August, the final newspaper still working from an office on London's Fleet Street called 'stop the press' and closed its doors for the final time. Thirteen days later it was the turn of award-winning journalist Maurice Chittenden to make his excuses and leave. He was fired from The Sunday Times after a Fleet Street career lasting almost forty years, one that saw him working for a trio of legendary Murdoch editors: Andrew Neil, Kelvin Mackenzie and Derek Jameson. In a rip-roaring trip through his career, he tells how he was involved (accidentally, of course) in the first ever telephone bugging of a member of the Royal Family twenty years before such skulduggery was even thought possible, helped solve the murder of schoolgirl Caroline Dickinson and was credited with bringing down a Tory government. He arrived too late to save his boss the embarrassment of the Hitler diaries, but he exposed the supposed Jack the Ripper confessions and Roswell alien autopsy film as fakes. He sparked a diplomatic incident when he was thrown into jail in Borneo over a lobster. One of the last surviving combatants in The Battle of Wapping, in which an attack on his car led to a police cavalry charge and a bloody riot, he is the most by-lined reporter in The Sunday Times history with up to seven by-lines a week. His career mirrored the rise and fall of Fleet Street and he freely admits that his own excesses played a part in its downfall. The Fleet Street he remembers with fondness no longer exists. But its reputation as the 'Street of Shame' survives in the name of the column in Private Eye which afforded him the plaudit of 'the legendary Maurice Chittenden' in its report of his professional demise."--Publisher.

TTTHEN I came to look over a file of my father's VV newspaper the other day, for the sake of refreshing my memory, I was more surprised to find how little there was in it than to discover how little it was in itself. In that time of small things subscribers must have been easily satisfied: purchasers there were none. The news from Europe, when there was any, was usually about six weeks old, or even older. Of editorial comment upon men and things, there was a plentiful lack. There were very few communications fortunately, for most of them were far from interesting. The advertising amounted to nearly nothing at all. There was a column devoted to some patent medicine ? the Catholicon, I think it was called ? with a fierce-looking cut of Hercules making matters disagreeable for the Hydra, which went in week after week for several years ? indeed, I suspect, long after wretched experimentershad ceased to swallow the fluid abomination. I never could find out that we got anything for the insertion of this announcement, and I was so angry at what I regarded as a double swindle that I conceived a prejudice against patent medicines which Las lasted me to this day, and is still as vigorous as ever. The stuff was kept for sale by an old Quaker apothecary, who drew teeth for six cents each, and in the case of juvenile extractions always gave the money back to soothe the weeping child. Our printing office had few excitements, and these few were far between. One summer day we were all floored by a ...

Writing my memoir is not something that I thought I would do. The thought of it germinated in my mind because I grew up in journalism and took on the editorial, management and various other responsibilities that I was given by the newspapers and news magazines I wrote for. Besides, in Nigeria where I originally come from, journalism, at the time I entered into it in the mid-1970s, was really not a well-regarded profession. In fact, people looked down on journalists and saw them generally as school dropouts. However, there were some among the veteran journalists in the country who were not university graduates but had demonstrated exemplary brilliance and courage as journalists. It was not until the early 1970s, or so that university graduates were recruited into the journalism profession in Nigeria as editors, columnists, features writers, and so on. Therefore, I entered the profession as a young boy. I had just left secondary school and was only 18! Because of my age, I could only be hired as a cub reporter. xv I had no previous training in anything else, and I was not a university graduate. All I had was a modest West African School Certificate. It meant that I had to be trained on the job as an apprentice, as it was the tradition in those days. Any prospect of my doing well and progressing in the profession depended largely on how serious, dedicated and determined I was to learn the rudiments of reporting and be patient to grow and excel in the profession. I threw myself into it anyhow.

Acclaimed 60 Minutes commentator and true-crime author Shana Alexander turns her journalist’s eye to her own unconventional family—and herself—in this fascinating, moving memoir Shana Alexander spent most of her life trying to figure out her enigmatic parents. Milton Ager was a famous songwriter whose creations included “Ain’t She Sweet” and “Happy Days Are Here Again.” Cecelia Ager was a film critic and Variety columnist. They were a glamorous Jazz Age couple that moved in charmed circles with George and Ira Gershwin, Dorothy Parker, and Jerome Kern. They remained together for fifty-seven years, and yet they lived separate lives. This wise, witty, unflinchingly candid memoir is also a revealing account of Alexander’s own life, from her successful career as a writer and national-news commentator to her troubled marriages and emotionally wrenching love affairs. She shares insights about growing up with a cold, hypercritical mother, her relationship with her younger sister, the suicide of her adopted daughter, and her reconciliation with her parents after a twenty-year estrangement. “I had to do a lot of detective work to uncover the truth about my parents’ lives,” Alexander said. “I knew almost nothing about them as people. But by the end they really did become my best friends.”
