In a dramatic account of violence and espionage, Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter Ronan Farrow exposes serial abusers and a cabal of powerful interests hell-bent on covering up the truth, at any cost.
In 2017, a routine network television investigation led Ronan Farrow 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 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 an account of abuse in his own family.
All the while, Farrow and his producer faced a degree of resistance they could not explain -- until now. And a trail of clues revealed corruption and cover-ups from Hollywood to Washington and beyond.
This is the untold story of the exotic tactics of surveillance and intimidation deployed by wealthy and connected men to threaten journalists, evade accountability, and silence victims of abuse. And it's the story of the women who risked everything to expose the truth and spark a global movement.
Both a spy thriller and a meticulous work of investigative journalism, Catch and Kill breaks devastating new stories about the rampant abuse of power and sheds far-reaching light on investigations that shook our culture.
##多个女性被性侵之后和Harvey Weinstein保持了一段时间的婚外情关系,想起Roxane Gay写自己少年时被轮奸后和带头的男孩恋爱,又想到房思琪,浑身颤抖...
评分##信息密度低+写作风格碎片化,有收获 但是看着很累
评分你以为NBC不播(只)是因为高层和Weinstein是朋友,你以为纽约客报道之后NBC开除Matt Lauer只是余震。你们啊,naive!根本没料到的是,NBC得知自己台内职场性骚扰甚至强暴已经很多年,被HW抓住这个把柄,才不敢报HW的案子,最终还不是怕影响广告收入。但说NBC黑,FOX,CBS不都有职场性侵吗。相信还有更多没被爆出的。看完这本书,我对美国社会普遍对于女性性骚扰和性侵犯的冷漠感到耻辱和愤怒。对受害女性不但得不到帮助甚至被抹黑进而自责而感到悲哀。唯一让我安慰的是,美国至少还有新闻自由。
评分##读完比预期中心情复杂 印象里罗南是风头正劲的新世代调查报道才俊代表 不曾想背后是这么曲折的追查采访过程 天下动物台一般黑 Poison valley all around. 试想在这样的环境中 如果被老板吩咐当幌子诱导其他姑娘来开会 扪心自问真的能坚守底线不助纣为虐么? 心情复杂的另一个因素是对老头的看法愈加矛盾了 不过依然狠不下心划清界限唉! 内容虽严肃笔锋仍不失幽默 节目都下线了依然有塑料朋友表明忠实观众的身份 某传媒集团员工表示在法律边缘游走何等令人激动 记得最初实时读到新闻的时候觉得彰显好莱坞集体伪善 也难怪韦恩斯坦是斯皮尔伯格之下上帝之上了呵呵! 最后一定要为纽约客和Remnick老师喝彩 可以续订贵刊重回落灰党行列!
评分##在HW被判刑的这一周正好听完了这本书,他绝对是丧心病狂的predator,迟来的正义终究来了。致敬每一个站出来挑战权势的受害者,她们的勇气,照亮未来的路。开始的时候觉得Farrow太巨细靡遗的讲NBC如何Kill这个故事,太多对话了。后来想想,正是这样,才能看得出,这不仅仅是一个HW,一个Matt Lauer, 一个Trump的问题,这是整个企业整个社会,巨大利益网互相保护的真实写照,不把这些细节写出来就看不出这层黑网之深。PS 有声书版是Farrow自己念的,绝对是一个戏精,一直在模仿各种口音。。。。

评分##读得越多,越爱《纽约客》和David Remnick
评分##No means no. But then again, slut shaming is the universal language. 好莱坞和各大电视台虚伪得令人发指,满口道德仁义,却对发生在眼皮底下的职场性侵视而不见,有女性员工提出指控,就不给工作机会+保密协议+大笔封口费+放弃起诉权豪华套餐伺候。我现在看到Meryl Streep和Woody Allen只觉得恶心,they fucking know but they said nothing. 但美国至少还有许多Ronan这样的调查记者揭露真相。The stories—the big ones, the true ones—can be caught but never killed.
评分##I'm interesting! I went to an escape room!!
