This book leaves no stone unturned when it comes to the ins and outs of sportscasting. I wish there was a book like this when I was starting out in the business., Sportscasting in the Digital Age is the only text students need to begin their career in sports broadcasting. John McGuire writes from experience. He has done the work and knows what questions to answer before new sportscasters even ask them. The book has straightforward advice for navigating the job market and the industry. He outlines specific steps students need to take to research a team, create a script, and call play-by-play for a game. From game prep to performance, McGuire prepares the new sports broadcaster for every scenario in the booth and beyond. He also provides a succinct history of the industry which allows reflection on how far sportscasters have come and where careers are headed. His experience, examples, and expertise set the gold standard for sports broadcasting instruction.
