Why people recommend it
Hoax: Inside Fox News and the Rise of Trump by Brian Stelter is an investigative journalism book that details the inner workings of Fox News, its relationship with Donald Trump, and its influence on conservative media and American politics. On The Book Review, Brian Stelter spoke with Gilbert Cruz about the stressful final stages of writing the book, expressing gratitude for his wife's help with their children while he raced to finish the final chapters. Stelter also discussed specific anecdotes featured in the book, including his past relationship with Tucker Carlson and quotes regarding Rupert Murdoch. Host Gilbert Cruz evaluated the book through a leadership lens, contrasting it with Reed Hastings's corporate book by framing Stelter's work as a cautionary tale of how not to run a major media empire. Additionally, Steve Krakauer appeared on The Megyn Kelly Show to discuss recent media departures, mentioning Stelter's book Hoax and noting that unfolding news events would require substantial updates for any potential sequel. Across these discussions, the book was analyzed as a critical examination of modern partisan media ecosystems, highlighting the complex and troubling intersections between political power, corporate media leadership, and broadcast journalism in contemporary American society.
