Synopsis by Betsy Boyd

Part of the educational series for children that describes several forms of American manufacturing, The Show & Tell Series: News and Comics details newspaper production. Kid-hosts Denny and Nancy invite viewers along for a trip across the United States to investigate every aspect of the newspaper business. Children learn how ink is manufactured, how news is written, how comic strips come to be, and how the paper itself is printed, copied, and later recycled. The video offers a fun behind-the-scenes peek at one of the country's oldest forms of news media.
