Lies, Incorporated: The World of Post-Truth Politics

Lies, Incorporated: The World of Post-Truth Politics

A stunning investigation of the history of organized misinformation in politics.

In todayâ€™s post-truth political landscape, there is a carefully concealed but ever-growing industry of organized misinformation that exists to create and disseminate lies in the service of political agendas. Ari Rabin-Havt and Media Matters for America present a revelatory history of this industryâ€”which they've dubbed Lies, Incorporatedâ€”and show how it has crippled legislative progress on issues including tobacco regulation, public health care, climate change, gun control, immigration, abortion, and same-sex marriage. Eye-opening and indispensable, Lies, Incorporated takes an unflinching look at the powerful network of politicians and special interest groups that have launched coordinated assaults on the truth to shape American politics.
