CATCH AND KILL

The newly updated edition. In 2017, a routine network TV investigation led to a story only whispered about - one of Hollywood's most powerful producers was a predator, protected by fear, wealth and a conspiracy of silence. As Ronan Farrow drew closer to the truth, shadowy operatives from high-priced lawyers to elite war-hardened spies mounted a secret campaign of intimidation, threatening his career, following his every move, and weaponizing his account of abuse in his own family. This is the untold story of surveillance and intimidation deployed by wealthy and connected men to threaten journalists, evade accountability, and silence victims of abuse, and it is the story of the women who risked everything to expose the truth and spark a global #MeToo movement. 'A few days later, Harvey Weinstein was in Los Angeles, meeting with operatives from Black Cube.? The sexual harassment story was proving to be a challenge. One actress after another backed out, often after involving prominent publicists. 457pp, paperback.
