Abstract: The gathering of news for television has presented problems both different and more complex than those encountered in newspaper or radio work. Until now, television news has been served by a massive, costly global news film operation. Electronic News Gathering, introduced to improve the immediacy of news broadcasting, replaces the film camera with a television camera, videotape recorder, and a microwave relay. This paper describes the now routine operation of news gathering at CBS using electronic cameras, recorders and mobile microwave links. New equipment devised for the CBS News Gathering Operations is described, and the advantages over film systems of greater immediacy, lower cost, and other factors including quality are presented.
