For years, the weekly Tyndall Report compiled by media analyst Andrew
Tyndall has offered week by week breakdowns of U.S. TV network news
coverage. Now, this authoritative report will be available online on the
MediaChannel.org, the new global media watch site.
"Andrew Tyndall is probably the best informed person in America on what all
major networks are actually reporting," says Media Channel Executive Editor
Danny Schechter. "He is a professional's professional, carefully monitored
the amount of time and the type of slant each network newscast devotes to
individual stories. Whatever your opinion of news coverage, you can't
quibble with the data he assembles. We are delighted that he will be
providing summaries of his findings weekly on the Media Channel."
Tyndall is frequently a guest on TV and radio shows exploring news
coverage. He was an on-air commentator in the past for Globalvison's human
rights television series, "Rights and Wrongs," offering an analysis of
human rights reporting.
