An iBooks bestseller in Audiobooks
As the nation recovers from the Trump presidency, many questions remain: Why was the COVID-19 pandemic so grossly mishandled? How did we get so politically polarized? What caused white nationalist groups to come out of the shadows, and are they here to stay?
The answers lie the twisted story of the relationship between Donald Trump and Fox News. Through firsthand accounts from over 250 current and former Fox insiders, CNN anchor and chief media correspondent Brian Stelter unlocks the inner workings of Rupert Murdoch’s multibillion-dollar media empire. The confessions are shocking: “We don’t really believe all this stuff,” a producer says. “We just tell other people to believe it.”
Stelter completes the story of the Trump years and looks toward the future of the network that made him. Hoax is a book for anyone who reads the news and wonders how we got here, and what happens next.
Editorial Reviews
Editorial Reviews
“A thorough and damning exploration of the incestuous relationship between Trump and his favorite channel.” —New York Times
“A juicy book about the democracy-threatening relationship between Fox News and Donald Trump.” —Washington Post
“[Stelter] chronicles the symbiotic relationship between [Trump] and Rupert Murdoch’s most famous product…Hoax is amply documented.” —The Guardian (London)
“Stelter’s account gives a sense that […] there’s no one really in control — that Hannity, Carlson, Ingraham and the “Fox & Friends” morning team can essentially do what they want.” —Associated Press
“A deep, dispiriting dive into the nefarious intersection of politics, conspiracy, lies, and money as served up by Donald Trump and Fox News.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
“Stelter energetically narrates this impassioned takedown of the incestuous relationship between President Trump and Fox News…He reads his tell-all at a quick pace, his cadence worthy of a schooled broadcaster, his tone indignant…His audiobook is a must for anyone who wants to understand Fox and its most important viewer.” —AudioFile
