Schou will name names and shine a spotlight on flagrant examples of collusion, when respected reporters have crossed the line and sold out to powerful agencies. The book will also document how the CIA has embedded itself in liberal” Hollywood to ensure that its fictional spies get the hero treatment on screen.
