In his #1 New York Times bestseller, Bias, Emmy Award-winning journalist Bernard Goldberg created a national firestorm when he exposed the liberal biases of the so-called mainstream media. Now, in his new blockbuster, Goldberg goes even further. He not only takes on Big Journalism, but offers a twelve-step program to help the media elites overcome their addiction to bias.
In Arrogance, Goldberg punctures the bubble in which the media elites live and work, a culture of denial where contrary views are not welcome. He shows how they base their stories on assumptions many Americans don't share - which inevitably leads to biased reporting and slanted news. With blistering wit and passion, he names names and builds his case, revealing:
-How the media's coverage of the Jayson Blair scandal missed far more serious problems at the New York Times.
-How some of the toughest watchdogs in journalism became Hillary Clinton's lapdogs.
-Why the media refuse to shoot straight when the subject turns to guns.
-Which CBS News icon is "transparently liberal, " according to commentator Andy Rooney.
-Why the only kind of diversity you cannot in a lot of newsrooms is a diversity of ideas.
-How some journalists, like Bob Costas and Tim Russert, do get it - and how they think American journalism can be made better.
Arrogance is one of those rare programs that can change not only a powerful American institution... but the American landscape as well.
