Description: We specialize in strong packaging! STANDING UP TO THE RICH AND POWERFUL IN HOLLYWOOD THIS BOOK IS A PROBE by a gutsy journalist into an issue that has been much in the news recently - "catch and kill", the practice in which some media outlets buy stories not to publish them but to bury them. It stems from whispers in Hollywood circles that a powerful producer was a sexual predator, protected by wealth and fear. When the journalist, Ronan Farrow, started an investigation he ran into high-priced lawyers, secret operatives and intimidation aimed at avoiding accountability. The bullying tactics did not work. The result of his determination is this stunning book. THIS IS A FIRST EDITION HARDCOVER in fine condition with clean, crisp and unmarked pages, a firm and square cover and an intact dust-jacket. There are no signs of previous ownership and it looks as though it has yet to be read. The book includes source notes and a general index. Farrow won a Pulitzer Prize for his work on this subject that appeared in The New Yorker and has been named by Time Magazine as one of the 100 most influential people in the world. He is a graduate of Yale Law School and completed a doctorate in political science at Oxford University.
