Media Madness: Donald Trump, the Press, and the War over the Truth Hardcover – January 29, 2018 by Howard Kurtz (Regnery Publishing)
This is a superb book that I highly recommend to everyone, especially journalists and politicians. I am writing this review as someone involved in the media business, having started my career as a reporter for UPI in 1974 and, since 1978, as a person responsible for syndicating political columnists and editorial cartoonists, and I have never been so surprised and confused by the obvious hatred that exists between a president and the media."Hatred" is not an exaggeration. Howard Kurtz analyzes this phenomenon in prose that is fast-paced and compelling, and his insights are unique because he is not beholden to either political side. If you see this book as a defense of Trump, then your anti-Trump bias is blinding you, and if you see this book as a defense of Washington journalists, then your pro-Trump bias is blinding you. I write this after reading some of the reviews on Amazon, where one reviewer says the book is an apologia for Trump and another says it is a defense of the media establishment. I loved this book and found it helpful in sorting out political stories coming out of Washington in this historic time.
