| Summary |
There's no crying in newsrooms tells the stories of remarkable women who broke through barrier after barrier at media organizations around the country over the past four decades. The female pioneers featured in this book have many lessons to teach about what it takes to succeed in media or any other male-dominated organization, and their message is more important now than ever before. An updated introduction to this edition takes note of progress for women (and, in particular, women of color), in the wake of recent movements for racial justice and gender equity. It offers a qualified hope that newsrooms -- and their leaders -- really will look different in the years ahead. |
