From the Back Cover:
The Book describes the bitter controversy that erupted in 1982 when lead actor Edward Asner came under fire for his political beliefs regarding American involvement in El Salvador.
From Booklist:
The Lou Grant show ran from 1977 to 1982 and became the most popular newspaper drama ever broadcast on television. Journalists at the fictional Los Angeles Tribune strove to question authority while covering issues as thoroughly as possible. Daniel chronicles character development, plots (often reflecting real news of the day, from Vietnam vets and inner-city school violence to political corruption and homosexuality, although abortion and school busing were avoided), and censorship issues, coming from the CBS Program Practices department. Daniel provides plot summaries for all 114 episodes and delves into several of the 23 newspaper dramas that premiered (though most failed) during the three decades prior to this award-winning Mary Tyler Moore production. For five seasons, Lou Grant and his colleagues delivered a weekly dose of dramatic realism; this book serves as an indispensable tool for appreciating its impact on the newspaper genre and television drama as a whole. Jennifer Henderson
