Killing the Messenger: The Right-Wing Plot to Derail Hillary and Hijack Your Government

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

New York Times bestselling author and founder of Media Matters, David Brock takes readers on his daring and eye-opening odyssey through the maze of political trenches.


David Brock is the ultimate happy warrior. Once a leading right-wing hit man, Brock is now the Left's pre-eminent defender and truth-teller.

In this incisive, personal account, Brock disarms the major tentacles of the Republican Leviathan: the Koch Brothers, the Clinton haters, and the Fox Noise Machine. With the acumen of a seasoned political player, Brock takes readers inside his Democratic war rooms and their 24/7 battles with right-wing forces for control of the story lines and messages that will decide the 2016 election. And he chronicles his own evolution from lead Clinton attack-dog to one of Hillary Clinton's fiercest defenders as he knocks down the conservative case against her.

Finally, KILLING THE MESSENGER provides the no holds barred playbook for what the new right-wing conspirators will do in this election cycle to tear apart the electorate-and what good, engaged, and informed citizens can do to stop them.

David Brock founded Media Matters, the nation's premier progressive media watchdog and Democratic Super PAC American Bridge. He is the author of five books, including his bestselling memoir, Blinded by the Right. His writing appears in USA Today, CNN.com, Huffington Post, Daily Beast, and Salon. He is a member of the board of Priorities USA, a Super PAC supporting Hillary Clinton in 2016.
