Lapdogs: How the Press Rolled Over For Bush

From Strand Bookstore

In a groundbreaking work, journalist Eric Boehlert details how the Bush White House has used tactics such as curbing access, bullying reports, hyping terror alerts, and paying off pundits to undermine and control the press and how the mainstream media accepted their role without any questions. Drawing on hundreds of sources and exclusive interviews with some of the major players in the media today, Boehlert exposes the lies and gives a voice to the millions ofcitizens who are currently disheartened by the actions of the mainstream media. A work that will send shockwaves throughout the country, "Lapdogs" is journalism at its best.
