| Summary, etc |
Ten men and three women--nine of them Americans and four Britons--receive Randall's crown as "the best reporters who ever lived." That's best with a few qualifiers: in perusing the past two centuries of reportage and writing the longtime UK newspaper editor eliminated radio and television journalists from consideration, as well as teams of reporters (ruling out Woodward and Bernstein of Watergate fame), anyone whose reporting was done for a book, and journalists who were primarily columnists or commentators. Those who made the final cut in Randall's celestial newsroom: William Howard Russell, Edna Buchanan, A.J. Liebling, George Seldes, Nellie Bly, Richard Harding Davis, J.A. MacGahan, James Cameron, Floyd Gibbons, Hugh McIlvanney, Ernie Pyle, Ann Leslie, and Meyer Berger. Each profile includes a b #38;w image of the reporter.
