Featuring breakout sections with expert insight from leaders in the field—including Cubs announcer Pat Hughes and ESPN/ABC’s Dusty Dvoracek—and profiles of great interviewers such as the late Jack Buck and ESPN host and reporter Marty Smith, Sportscasting in the Digital Age is full of practical guidance and behind-the-scenes details that will prepare the next generation of sportscasters for success.
