The ABC of News Anchoring is one of the first books that discusses the truth about the field of news anchoring in India. Richa Jain Kalra, a news anchor herself, has used her anchoring experience to explain how students should prepare themselves for this career, how they should sustain themselves on the job and what they should do to chart their way towards success. This book is divided into four parts. While the first part deals with the basic training for anchors (including qualities required to be a good anchor, how to conduct interviews and phonos, how to read a teleprompter and so on), the second part contains the truth about the news anchoring business. The third section deals with sustaining a news anchoring career (by avoiding mistakes, getting better at anchoring and so on) and the final part contains the views of established anchors.


Features

• News anchoring jargon explained under Important Terms • Examples from contemporary news items • Tips at the end of chapters giving additional practical advice for anchors Views and experiences of seasoned anchors
