MAD AS HELL: How 60 Minutes Took on the Powerful and Made Television History (en Inglés) - Harry Moses;Scott Pelley

For almost sixty years, every Sunday night at seven o’clock sharp, America has stopped what it was doing to hear instantly recognizable the tick tock that introduces 60 Minutes. At its peak, this news show was the most powerful hour on television, drawing as many as fifty million viewers a week. Presidents watched. CEOs braced themselves. Ordinary citizens—wronged, ignored, or silenced—found a voice.

In Mad as Hell, a producer from the program’s golden years takes readers deep inside the broadcast that reshaped television journalism. Working alongside Mike Wallace, Dan Rather, Morley Safer, and executive producer Don Hewitt, Harry Moses tells how a scrappy news experiment morphed into a national institution, and how television at its best could hold the powerful to account.
