“Tatiana Repkova’s New Times is the most comprehensive and practical guide to all aspects of newsroom management that I have ever seen. It is rare for those in the business to have access to so much expertise without hiring a personal consultant to spend weeks analyzing operations and making recommendations. But this handbook is truly like having a consultant on hand for any issue that a manager might encounter, from setting up a marketing plan, to managing newsroom personnel, to drawing up budgets and dozens of other topics. It has remained fresh and relevant even as the news industry itself has changed, and the strategies it presents are still models for success.”
