"The mainstream media's obsessive hatred for President Trump
outruns his anti-media fixation by a country mile, argues this
evenhanded and incisive study of press relations with the Trump
administration." -Publishers Weekly "`Defiance Disorder': Another
new book describes chaos in Trump's White House" -Ashley Parker,
Washington Post According to the media, Donald Trump could never
become president. Now many are on a mission to prove he shouldn't
be president. The Trump administration and the press are at war-and
as in any war, the first casualty has been truth. Bestselling
author Howard Kurtz, host of Fox News's Media Buzz and former
Washington Post columnist, offers a stunning expose of how
supposedly objective journalists, alarmed by Trump's success, have
moved into the opposing camp. Kurtz's exclusive, in-depth,
behind-the-scenes interviews with reporters, anchors, and insiders
within the Trump White House reveal the unprecedented hostility
between the media and the president they cover. In Media Madness,
you'll learn: Why White House strategist Steve Bannon told Trump he
is in danger of being impeached How the love-hate relationship
between the president and Morning Joe hosts-Joe Scarborough and
Mika Brzezinski-turned entirely to hate How Kellyanne Conway felt
betrayed by journalists who befriended her-and how she fought back
How elite, mainstream news reporters-named and quoted-openly
express their blatant contempt for Trump How Bannon tried to block
short-lived Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci-and why
Trump soured on him How Ivanka and Jared Kushner aren't the
liberals the pundits want them to be-and why Trump tried to
discourage them from joining the White House Why Trump believes
some journalists harbor hatred for him-and how some liberals
despise his voters How Trump is a far more pragmatic politician
than the press often acknowledges (and how the press dismisses his
flip-flops when he flops their way) What Trump got wrong about
Charlottesville-and how Steve Bannon predicted the debacle How the
media consistently overreached on the Russian "collusion" scandal
Why Trump actually likes journalists, secretly meets with them, and
allows the press unprecedented access Why Reince Priebus couldn't
do his job-and the real reason he left the White House How Sean
Spicer privately berated journalists for bad reporting-and why he
and Kellyanne Conway were relentlessly attacked by the media Never
before has there been such an eye-opening, shocking look at what
the White House and the media think about each other. It's not
pretty. But it also makes for the most important political book of
the year.
