    Comments Thread For: Al Bernstein on His New Book, Modern Journalism, Pt. 1

    This week, one of boxing’s broadcasting legends, Al Bernstein, released a book titled 30 Years, 30 Undeniable Truths about Boxing, Sports, and TV.

    “I fudged it a little bit. It’s actually been 32 years now, but 30 is a nice, symmetrical number,” he said, laughing. “To be fair, I started writing it when I was in my 30th year in broadcasting, so I went with it.”

    Always thought Bernstein was very fair and open-minded. Gives pertinent criticisms.

    The writer should have, by now, learned the difference in meaning between "design" and "designation". Maybe he does, although his use of "designation" seems to make the sentence meaningless.

      I am no expert but there was actually nothing wrong with the design of the cover just the number of years was off.
