Industry reviews
"YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN HERE YESTERDAY is a moving account of Utley's experiences in the business as well as a history of television news. He openly acknowledges his frustrations at both the limitations of reporting and television's corporate parents' squeezing of foreign news in the name of profits. Still, he chooses to see the positive."
New York Times - Ruth Bayard Smith (03/25/2001)

"A thoughtful record of the days when the going was good--and television was both informing and entertaining."
Kirkus Reviews  (11/01/2000)

You Should Have Been Here Yesterday by Garrick Utley



Description

 

Synopsis

A witty, critical memoir--in print and on a DVD disc--of a life in front of the cameras and of the evolution of television news by one of America's leading TV journalists.

A generation of television viewers grew up watching Garrick Utley as he trekked to the far reaches of the Earth for NBC-News. What is life as a foreign correspondent really like? Is it all glamour and adventure? In this wise and witty memoir, Utley reveals what life is like behind the camera. He takes us from the battlefields of Vietnam to the backwaters of Belize, from communist Russia to revolutionary Rhodesia, in search of the most riveting, most important news stories out there.

But Utley's story is far more than a personal memoir--it's a sweeping history of network news. Utley reflects, in particular, on how the correspondent's role has shifted as centralized control, advanced technology, "infotainment," and profit margin have altered the way television networks operate and television news is reported. Packaged with a DVD of memorable Utley reports and dramatic footage from the heyday of network news, You Should Have Been Here Yesterday is an indispensable tour of the business and excitement of television news.
