BEHIND THE STORY –
Host, Producer, Series Developer
“A groundbreaking look inside the
news & how it’s covered”
Behind the Story is
an entertaining weekly one-hour roundtable discussion with three guests who write, report and edit news. The approach probes the coverage and port
rayal of current issues in mainstream and niche-market media. Each
week the program, hosted by Richard M. Landau, addresses the coverage of from
two to three items of significance in the current news.
“This is all about digging behind the superficial
aspects of news to uncover what’s really going on and place it in
context,” says Richard.
The tone of the program is intimate, behind the scenes,
chatty and frank . . . a “shirtsleeves” look inside the minds
that cover the news. Wherever possible, the program rolls in relevant tape
footage of each topic OR a montage of newspaper headlines. The program’s closing segment each
week – The Floor Is Yours – provides each guest with time to
editorialize on their own favorite issue.
