Perhaps you've always wondered how public radio gets that smooth, well-crafted sound. Maybe you're thinking about starting a podcast, and want some tips from the pros. Or maybe storytelling has always been a passion of yours, and you want to learn to do it more effectively. Whatever the case--whether you're an avid NPR listener or you aspire to create your own audio, or both--Sound Reporting: The NPR Guide to Audio Journalism and Production will give you a rare tour of the world of a professional broadcaster. Jonathan Kern, who has trained NPR's on-air staff for years, is a gifted guide, able to narrate a day in the life of a host and lay out the nuts and bolts of production with equal wit and warmth. Along the way, he explains the importance of writing the way you speak, reveals how NPR books guests ranging from world leaders to neighborhood newsmakers, and gives sage advice on everything from proposing stories to editors to maintaining balance and objectivity. Best of all--because NPR wouldn't be NPR without its array of distinctive voices--lively examples from popular shows and colorful anecdotes from favorite personalities animate each chapter. As public radio's audience of millions can attest, NPR's unique guiding principles and technical expertise combine to connect with listeners like no other medium can. With today's technologies allowing more people to turn their home computers into broadcast studios, Sound Reporting couldn't have arrived at a better moment to reveal the secrets behind the story of NPR's success.Binding Type: Paperback

High Quality Comfort!
Color: 01 Sage Green, Size: Queen (90" X 90")
This is definitely one of the most comfortable blankets I have ever owned. The material is thick, soft, warm, durable, and resistant to shedding & fibers breaking off. All of these favorable qualities work together to create optimal sleep conditions, and I would say it protects against cold temperatures in the environment (natural air & A/C, for example) very well. It is SO extremely cozy!!! It has become a comfort item of sorts, as well. It fits my Queen-sized bed absolutely perfectly. I've been searching for a blanket to fit my entire bed, and this blanket most definitely is the one.
When this blanket is nearby, it's nap time!
I love the the slightly raised texture of this blanket's material, and the checkered pattern adds a subtle, yet stylish touch to its overall appearance.

Loving my Bedsure Blanket
Color: Cream, Size: King (108" X 90")
I love this blanket. It’s for summer use & is the perfect weight. I feel both cozy and cool! Plus color & size are as shown. I washed it immediately and it was easy & came out soft; no shrinkage or shedding in the dryer.

Very soft. Light Blue is more of a sky blue
Color: Light Blue, Size: Throw XL (50" X 70")
Very soft, pretty thin, and a little stretchy. Overall, it looks nice. I would say it's a little thin for the colder weather, but great for the warmer months. I got the light blue, and it is a little more sky blue than true baby blue. I wish it were a true blue, but it's close enough that I'll keep it rather than go through the return process. I washed it, and little fuzzies came free, but nothing too alarming for a first wash. Hopefully, it doesn't do that every time. With how thin it is, there'll be nothing left eventually.

Super soft and strong , really nice blanket
Color: Navy, Size: Queen (90" X 90"), Color: Navy, Size: Queen (90" X 90")
This blanket is so soft. This blanket has stretch to it which is nice for tucking under mattress. Easy to lay out and fits perfectly on a queen bed, perfect amount of hangover. Great quality blanket.
I did wash before I put on the bed and it did great. Shed in dryer but that’s easy clean up in vent.
No shedding on bed after washed. I laid on bed before washed and it only shed a small amount, not much.
I absolutely love this material, strong yet super soft.
Definitely a great blanket to buy! You’ll love it.
