In a dramatic account of violence and espionage, Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter Ronan Farrow exposes serial abusers and a cabal of powerful interests hell-bent on covering up the truth, at any cost.
In 2017, a routine network television investigation led Ronan Farrow to a story only whispered about: one of Hollywood's most powerful producers was a predator, protected by fear, wealth, and a conspiracy of silence. As Farrow drew closer to the truth, shadowy operatives, from high-priced lawyers to elite war-hardened spies, mounted a secret campaign of intimidation, threatening his career, following his every move, and weaponizing an account of abuse in his own family.
All the while, Farrow and his producer faced a degree of resistance they could not explain -- until now. And a trail of clues revealed corruption and cover-ups from Hollywood to Washington and beyond.
This is the untold story of the exotic tactics of surveillance and intimidation deployed by wealthy and connected men to threaten journalists, evade accountability, and silence victims of abuse. And it's the story of the women who risked everything to expose the truth and spark a global movement.
Both a spy thriller and a meticulous work of investigative journalism, Catch and Kill breaks devastating new stories about the rampant abuse of power and sheds far-reaching light on investigations that shook our culture.
##完全低于预期。一直强调各种阻力,说的太多了叫人觉得厌烦。bad blood 要好看太多了
评分##NBC 真黑
评分##报道的具体细节,但是写的却并不吸引人。各种肮脏的勾结、交易在其中,天下职场一般黑。
评分##本书行文严谨举证详实到什么地步呢?阅读过程中你能在脑海里自动勾勒出作者的fact-checking sheets来。同时又绝不枯燥,反而非常扣人心弦,将盘根错节的利益集团怎样合力绞杀势单力孤的个体抗争展现得淋漓尽致,读来令人悚然心惊、彻骨恶寒。当我看到Ambra Gutierrez强抑着恐惧为作者播放韦恩斯坦罪证录音时说“I hope the other girls get Justice”,真的忍不住哭成瀑布。对于作者,不必多言,Ronan Farrow 2036!!!【 最后八卦一下,我之前不知道原来Jon Lovett是他男友(现在是未婚夫了),好登对!!!
评分##太好看了!把调查报道写成这样,farrow真是有才有颜还有正义感。
评分##在HW被判刑的这一周正好听完了这本书,他绝对是丧心病狂的predator,迟来的正义终究来了。致敬每一个站出来挑战权势的受害者,她们的勇气,照亮未来的路。开始的时候觉得Farrow太巨细靡遗的讲NBC如何Kill这个故事,太多对话了。后来想想,正是这样,才能看得出,这不仅仅是一个HW,一个Matt Lauer, 一个Trump的问题,这是整个企业整个社会,巨大利益网互相保护的真实写照,不把这些细节写出来就看不出这层黑网之深。PS 有声书版是Farrow自己念的,绝对是一个戏精,一直在模仿各种口音。。。。
评分##读得越多,越爱《纽约客》和David Remnick

评分##2019.12.25 开始几章非常难熬,全是name drop,甚至让人觉得Farrow写作也不怎么地。(比他New Yorker稿子差多了)。 没想到后面越写越好。结尾看得落泪… 建议所有有女孩的家长都看一下。性侵会摧毁精神,而周围社会的陈见有多深,二次伤害就有多深(其实男孩家长更应该看)。 性侵:不管之前是否发生过关系,之后是否发生关系,不管之前和多少男人上过床,如果这一次说了不,就是性侵。 “Stories, the big ones, the true ones, can be caught but never be killed."
