As author Gary L. Wilson notes, only half the news people receive on a daily basis is true and it generally is less than half of the amount known. With this book, Wilson aims to correct this abundance of misinformation by providing the American reader with an uncensored thirty-year look at his own experience in the radio and TV arena as well as his work for newspapers and in public relations. Looking back at government corruption, dirty dealings, and organized crime in Chicagoland as well as the good and bad times he had in the newsroom, Wilson delivers a colorful, funny, and harrowing look at one young reporters experiences in the 1950s and 1960s Midwest.
