Although "Yo! MTV Raps" was the highest rated show in MTV's history, executives at the station feared that it would overshadow all their other programming, according to Chuck...
...your readership. It is best to avoid both underlining and italics which are likely to produce a blurred image if your resume is faxed or electronically scanned. Use white or ecru paper with matching envelopes and paper for your cover letters.

Most theatergoers will simply let out a slow exhale, after an evening that takes the breath away...
