内容简介
······

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.

评论 ······

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…

完全低于预期。一直强调各种阻力，说的太多了叫人觉得厌烦。bad blood 要好看太多了

题材很棒，作者的努力和坚持也很棒，但是写得稍微有点散，特别是Weinstein的文章发表了之后的部分。

报道的具体细节，但是写的却并不吸引人。各种肮脏的勾结、交易在其中，天下职场一般黑。
