Vincent M. Fitzgerald has produced a strong indictment of the misuse of polls by television news-a crime against informed civic discourse that has been going on for decades. His compelling new book, The Influence of Polls on Television News Coverage of Presidential Campaigns, provides the who, what, where, when and how of the rise of the often-problematic reporting of election surveys. -- Stephen J. Farnsworth, University of Mary Washington
