Glad you are having this talk with Mr. Schechter, he's one of the great journalists of our time. I remember his early days in Boston (early 70s) and how he transformed the delivery of news back then on the radio. It changed the way radio news was presented and how I received news back then, it was significant to say the least.
I learned about this film a couple days ago and I am certain it is comprehensive and very informative. I had no idea Mr. Schechter spent so much time involved in Pres. Mandela's history, lost track of Schechter years ago.
I'll certainly give this a listen!
Please let him know that at least one of his old BCN fans is out here stumping for this film...
And Thank You!
Thank you for your nice comments!!!
I appreciate your journalism as well but I am really excited to see Mr. Schechter back in view. I am sure it will be a great show, not that you haven't had other laudable presentations!
