Publisher's Summary
In this characteristically turbocharged new book, celebrated Rolling Stone journalist Matt Taibbi provides an insider's guide to the variety of ways today's mainstream media tells us lies. Part tirade, part confessional, it reveals that what most people think of as "the news" is, in fact, a twisted wing of the entertainment business.
In the internet age, the press have mastered the art of monetizing anger, paranoia, and distrust. Taibbi, who has spent much of his career covering elections in which this kind of manipulative activity is most egregious, provides a rich taxonomic survey of American political journalism's dirty tricks.
Hate Inc. will be an invaluable antidote to the hidden poisons dished up by those we rely on to tell us what is happening in the world.

Required reading for 2020's
Beautifully written and narrated. This is a crucial book for navigating the media landscape that has created consensus and disempowerment through discontent.

Why each side hates
Well constructed perspectives on each side of the media and political spectrum.
Must read on how echo chambers on each side have created the word view of 2020/21

Ive been very fortunate lately to come across a number of books that really do make sense of the mess we are in. this is one of them. some books should be required reading.
