Publisher Description: When Gov. Sarah Palin was selected as the Republican vice presidential nominee, the mainstream media knew little about her. But many of its members did know one thing: In the words of MSNBC journalist Mika Brzezinski, they wanted to "bring her down." "'Bring Her Down': How the American Media Tried to Destroy Sarah Palin" examines these reporters' visceral reaction to the sudden prominence of a pro-life conservative woman, and the tactics they used to try to marginalize her. And it asks what their no-holds-barred approach means for the future of elections in this country, and for the future of America itself. |
