Whitewash: What the Media Won't Tell You about Hillary Clinton, But Conservatives Will

by Tim Graham and L. Brent Bozell III

Book Overview

"The overriding question is: Why Hillary? Here we come to 2008 and she is the de facto nominee. . . . But what has she done?" -Rush Limbaugh, in an exclusive interview forWhitewash Amid all the discussion of Hillary Rodham Clinton's presidential prospects, the most important question is ignored: Why Hillary? How did the First Lady to a disgraced, impeached president become a presidential front-runner despite never having held elective office before 2001; her staggering number of personal, political, and financial scandals; and her leftist political agenda? The answer is that for two decades she has had the most powerful weapon in politics-the national "news" media-shamelessly promoting her presidential aspirations. InWhitewash, L. Brent Bozell III and Tim Graham of the Media Research Center, America's preeminent media watchdog organization, expose the unprecedented media favoritism that is the real key to Hillary's political career. Marshalling stunning evidence compiled exclusively by the Media Research Center, the authors show how the media have relentlessly promoted Hillary from the moment Time magazine introduced her to the country as an "amalgam of Betty Crocker, Mother Teresa, and Oliver Wendell Holmes." To expose the truth about Hillary that the supposedly objective media have buried, Bozell and Graham have interviewed dozens of leading conservatives who are fighting to let Americans hear the whole story: Rush Limbaugh, Newt Gingrich, Sean Hannity, Ann Coulter, Mark Levin, Mary Matalin, Laura Ingraham, Cal Thomas, and many others. Whitewashreveals: How the frequent claim that no one has been more investigated than Hillary Clinton is not just incorrect, but utterly absurd How prominent female reporters admit that they're "rooting" for Mrs. Clinton, their "mascot" The surprising ways Hillary's media allies have tried to fend off Barack Obama's challenge How the national media continue to promote Mrs. Clinton's socialist health care takeover as "ahead of its time" The network news anchor to whom Hillary gushed, "Thank you. Thank you. Thank you." The Republican congressman who tells how the Clintons "went after" him "mercilessly" for daring to investigate Hillary scandals How the press ruthlessly attacks anyone in the alternative media who dares challenge Hillary Mrs. Clinton's media flacks deride every negative charge against her as "old news," butWhitewashshows that Hillary's pattern of deception, corruption, and overreaching political schemes has been repeated again and again precisely because the media ignore the scandalous behavior. And the pattern will be repeated in 2008 and beyond if Americans aren't exposed at last to the truth that the servile national media have obscured.

hillary rodham-rodham is satan...

Great book by a great american. This woman is evil personified. She's been "fighting for women and children for 35 years", apparently Juanita Broderick, Jennifer Flowers, Paula Jones, Kathleen Willey, and Monica Lewinsky didn't get the memo...Given the history of corruption directly tied to Clinton, Inc., if elected (highly doubtful) we will likely see the "impeachment daily double." The Founding Fathers are spinning like turbines in their graves....

Compelling Read

Brent Bozell has painted a very accurate picture of the Clinton modus of operation and the documented bias of the mainstream media. He names names , dates, and places and has obviously done his homework. Aside from the hypocrisy and duplicity of the Clintons who are portrayed as congenital liars, corrupt, mean, and manipulative, the bias of the mainstream media and the effect they have on the political landscape is frightening, and the main thrust of the book. I'm a recovering liberal (their Socialist and partisan agenda lost me) who voted for Bill C. twice( we all make mistakes) and feel hoodwinked by the media. A subtle manipulation that the average or casual viewer or reader may not pick up on--they are duplicitous. This is a book for middle of the roaders and Independents. If you're far left, you won't buy it or believe it. If you're far right, it's preaching to the choir. But before the next election I would hope those that depend on the nightly news and the mainstream print media for truth in reporting read this. This woman is not qualified or fit to be President. She made "politics of personal destruction " an art form. The "Vast Right Wing Conspiracy"" (A book by Jeffrey Toobin that I also read) exists only in her mind and is right out of the Clinton playbook. When cornered , play the "poor me" victim card, obfuscate, blame "they" and lie. The media will enable and help. The left wing conpiracy poses far more danger to all of us. You will know that there are far more Dan Rathers and Katie Courics than there are Rush Limbaughs. This book shines a light on the fawning and incompetent cockroaches in the mainstream media. How her and her husband keep getting a free pass is beyond reasonable comprehension. I was a registered Democrat for 45 years and believe every word of it. It's on the money! Thank you Brent Bozell and Tim Graham

The Most Wonderful Book That Has Been The Most Supresed

I just want to say, "God Love Ya, Brent(before the Left declares such wishes illegal)...Of course the sold out, sneaky, supressing Skunks of the Media would ignore this book...It exposes them for the propagandizing pack of liars they are....Those of us who have read it must help to circulate its truth..If you think Hillary can't be elected, I suggest you study the rise of Mr. Hilter who also controlled the press... A great fast read....

The saddest thing...

The saddest thing about this book is that it had to be written at all. The Clinton's involvement in criminal activity is so overt and obvious that anyone who pays even the slightest attention has known about it since before they were ever co-presidents. I will not even bother to elaborate on all of the crimes and how many of the Clinton's associates in those matters have ended up in prison or meeting very mysterious deaths. It is sad that people who pay so little attention, or who are simply to dimwitted to see the obvious are allowed to vote in this country. This is why the founders did not support the idea of everyone being allowed to vote. Originally, only land owners were allowed to vote because the founders placed so much value on liberty and proper government that they greatly feared what would happen if the un-informed, poorly educated masses were allowed to vote. How correct they were. As usual. What you get is the modern Democrat party in office in spite of their anti-american, often treasonous, criminal activity.

The truth is out there...

...and this book presents it. I was sorry to see the one star review from someone who has evidently not yet actually read this book. It has something for you no matter what end of the political spectrum you are on. Facts speak louder than opinions, and this book is full of them. Its subject is an appalling sociopath who wants to control every aspect of our lives and whose history is full of dishonesty and denial with no qualifications for the Presidency she shamelessly seeks. Thoughtful, well-written, provocative. Read it and then make up your mind.
