Probably Martin Fletcher’s colleagues provide the best descriptions of his new book, BREAKING NEWS. Anderson Cooper says, “For decades Martin Fletcher has been the gold standard of television war correspondents, and his new book is a real-life, cross-continent adventure story.” Connie Chung calls the book “a page turner and a marvelous read.” Tom Brokaw says “I’ve known and admired Martin for more than thirty years, and this book makes me proud to call him friend and colleague.”

Martin himself says of his book, “I have been on fast-forward for most of my life, racing to keep ahead of the demands of a caerer in breaking news. Writing this book has given me a chance to pause and reflect a little on myself, but mostly on the dilemmas I have faced covering shattering events around the world.”

Martin Fletcher has covered almost every major conflict and natural disaster in Europe, Africa, and The Middle East for thirty-five years. He’s won five Emmies, a DuPont award, several Overseas Press Club awards, and many other honors. He is currently NBC News Bureau Chief in Tel Aviv.
