Summary

"The last of the legendary Edward R. Murrow news team still active in journalism" tells of adventures in the McCarthy anti-Communist hearings, Watergate coverage, the CBS bureau in Moscow, and revelations of CIA and FBI misdeeds that brought him before the House Ethics Committee and threatened with a jail term if he didn't name his sources. (He didn't, and the threat was never carried out.)--Jacket
