It's written for: Students (high school & college) Journalism teachers Communications teachers RTVJ teachers Sports management teachers/students Young Writers Experienced Writers (in non-sports fields) Journalists Sports fans Sports Journalists Sports Editors Copy editors Public Relations writers New Media writers Photojournalists (videographers, camerapersons) Media Relations writers or SID's Advertising or Marketing writers Radio & TV writers Sports Business writers Freelance writers WHY TEACHERS, STUDENTS, PROFESSIONAL JOURNALISTS, AND SPORTS FANS ARE PRAISING IT Experienced professionals writing in other fields who enjoy the excitement of sports finds The Mulligan Guide an essential guide for examining alternatives to the writing positions they now hold in and out of sports. The education and skills required for each field are fully explained, as well as how to find employment, what it takes to succeed and make a good living in each. Read how the superstars in the business achieved their success, and their advice and recommendations for the newcomer. Sports fans love to hear the internal workings of the sports journalism world because insider stories about the journalists' way of life; their pet peeves and favorite player anecdotes make for a fascinating read. Sports journalists love to read about their colleagues and how their own personal writing or editing situation and environment compares with others around the country. That's why we have so many interviews from all parts and corners of the country; so you can see what your peers are accomplishing and get some new ideas. The Mulligans tapped a wide ranging mix of veteran career pros, as well as newcomers who provided an unusual slant and honest appraisals of life near the lower rungs of the sports journalism ladders. You'll read the stories and advice of John Rawlings, Editor of The Sporting News, Armen Keteyian, CBS and HBO sportscaster, Joe Paterno, Penn State football coach, Bill Carter, business/TV writer for The New York Times, Harvey Greene PR director of the Miami Dolphins, John Calipari, recent head coach of the New Jersey Nets, as well as college interns and just-getting- started reporters. WHY THIS BOOK IS UNIQUE There are, of course, numerous books on the shelves covering the subject of journalism careers and sportswriting. They concentrate, however, almost exclusively on either a) general, non-sports journalism or b) if they are sports oriented, almost always on newspaper careers. Sportswriting books, then, are either about newspaper careers or are anthologies of the published works of accomplished sports reporters. Others focus in an instructional way on training for the newspaper business. None, however, have The Mulligan Guide focus on all of the other fields in which you can write or edit your way to sports enjoyment and income. The Mulligan Guide contains a candid, no-punches-pulled analysis of both the favorable and prejudicial aspects that work for and against all writers, including women and minority groups.
