Shadow Network: Media, Money and the Secret Hub of the Radical Right
“An absolutely momentous piece of investigative journalism.” – Publishers Weekly
“You can’t convert anxiety into votes without cash, and Nelson does an excellent job following the money . . . . Readers curious about how the American right gets its message out will find much to admire in it.” – NPR.org
“Anne Nelson’s work on middle America in Shadow Network reveals a political trend that threatens both our form of government and our species.” – TIMOTHY SNYDER, Levin Professor of History at Yale University and author of ON TYRANNY and THE ROAD TO UNFREEDOM
Shadow Network shines a light on a secretive network of right-wing fundamentalists, oil barons, and other interests, who have waged a forty-year campaign to take over Washington. It coordinates the political activism of many member organizations, including the National Rifle Association, the Federalist Society, and Family Research Council. In 2016 its members cut a deal with Donald Trump, who has been advancing their agendas from the White House. This eye-opening account describes their media platforms, their digital campaign strategy, and their chilling plans for America’s future, as they wage war against public health, public education, and the public interest. Past and present members include Kellyanne Conway, Steve Bannon, Jay Sekulow, Richard DeVos, and Wayne LaPierre.
