Catch and Kill: Lies, Spies, and a Conspiracy to Protect Predators by Ronan Farrow
informative
inspiring
reflective
medium-paced
4.0
Highly engaging account of Ronan Farrow's behind-the-scenes experience reporting the Weinstein story that, at times, comes across a little sensationalist. After a riveting first half, the second half drags as the book moves into a large tangent on AMI, Black Cube, and Trump, and ends with cheesy, on-the-nose lines about the importance of reporting and "how stories, the big ones, the true ones, can be caught but never killed." A predominate part of our history is written by white colonialists, so I'm just going to say that that is definitely not true.
