Summary:
In 1964 Downie landed an internship with the Washington Post. He would become a pioneering investigative reporter, news editor, foreign correspondent, and managing editor, before succeeding the legendary Ben Bradlee as executive editor. He played an equally important role over more than four decades in making the Post one of the world's leading news organizations. In a time when health and economic crises and partisanship are challenging the news media, Downie's judgment, fairness, and commitment to truth will inspire anyone who wants to know how journalism works at its best. -- adapted from jacket.
