Catch and Kill [Book] Douban
9.5 (8 ratings) author: Ronan Farrow publishing house: Little, Brown and Company 2019 - 10
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.

一个调查报告,写出了悬疑小说的感觉,真的很抓人!听有声书感觉更有意思,这个口音和语气的模仿,我只能发出“不愧是Mia Farrow的儿子啊”的感叹,另外还插入了Weinstein的真实录音……听他本人亲口承认“我已经习惯了”,漫不经心的语气,完全可以想象这个自以为凌驾于法律之上的惯犯怎样把性侵当作理所当然的特权,背后却是一群日日被抑郁和焦虑困扰、被性侵定义了一生的泣血的女人……Ronan Farrow的调查过程中遇到的阻碍也非常说明问题,这种系统性的捂嘴也波及到支持这些女人发声的男人,Ronan调查过程中受到的迫害,以及调查动机受到的质疑,被冠以(一般是女人刻板印象的)emotional and irrational的污名,只是因为和女性站在同一立场,强奸文化的标准运作模式
