Charlie LeDuff’s Tough Take On TV News
The former New York Times reporter turned Detroit TV newsman turned Fox Stations investigator on the state of The Americans, Charlie LeDuff is producing pieces for the station group that he describes as “a little 60 Minutes, a little Charles Kuralt and a little Jackass.” He says he’s looking for “some human explanation… some commonality” in his stories and believes that done correctly, “TV journalism can be a service and not a scorecard. We try to be fair, limber and muscular in shape and do some digging.”
