About this listen
As the nation recovers from the Trump presidency, many questions remain: Why was the COVID-19 pandemic so grossly mishandled? How did we get so politically polarized? What caused white nationalist groups to come out of the shadows, and are they here to stay?
The answers lie the twisted story of the relationship between Donald Trump and Fox News. Through firsthand accounts from over 250 current and former Fox insiders, CNN anchor and chief media correspondent Brian Stelter unlocks the inner workings of Rupert Murdoch’s multibillion-dollar media empire. The confessions are shocking: “We don’t really believe all this stuff,” a producer says. “We just tell other people to believe it.”
Stelter completes the story of the Trump years and looks toward the future of the network that made him. Hoax is a book for anyone who reads the news and wonders how we got here, and what happens next.
Critic Reviews
"Author Brian Stelter energetically narrates this impassioned takedown of the incestuous relationship between President Trump and Fox News. A longtime media critic and host of CNN's 'Reliable Sources,' he reads his tell-all at a quick pace, his cadence worthy of a schooled broadcaster, his tone indignant. The author's voice reveals an unstinting sense of disappointment for Fox News' ceding of its programming to Trump; for its bullying, propaganda-spewing hosts (Hannity, Ingram, Tucker); for the the morning Trumpfest of 'Fox & Friends' and the dangerous downplaying of COVID-19. There's no doubt that with this book Stelter, who has been maligned by Fox anchors, has his day in the court of public opinion. His audiobook is a must for anyone who wants to understand Fox and its most important viewer."
