Mervin Block

In today’s research, I came across the Web site for Mervin Block, a vet­eran tele­vi­sion news writer who has writ­ten for all three major net­works and for anchors like Walter Cronkite, Tom Brokaw and Charles Kuralt.

I’ll be pulling some pithy and use­ful blog posts out of his site this after­noon and tomor­row, but I thought I would share one quote from the site right away.

“To become a writer of any con­se­quence, you need broad expe­ri­ence, com­pe­tence in English, a good vocab­u­lary and some­thing to say.”

More to come.
