Catch and Kill

Investigative journalist Ronan Farrow – former anchor and investigative reporter for NBC News and reporter for The Wall Street Journal – details in this New York Times bestseller how he tracked the abuse allegations surrounding Harvey Weinstein and dealt with media and private surveillance efforts to kill his story.

Since the establishment of the first studios, few movie executives had been as dominant, or as domineering, as…Harvey Weinstein. Ronan Farrow

Farrow’s revelations, including horrifying narratives of harassment, prove disturbing, as does his chronicle of the cowardice or collusion of news outlets. Farrow tells how Weinstein used economic and political power to sabotage women and reporters. When NBC refused to pursue this story, The New Yorker published it, winning Farrow a Pulitzer Prize.
