The New York Times bestselling author of Hoax—“[a] rare look inside the profoundly influential” (The New Republic) Fox News—returns with an even more explosive account of the network’s blatant attempts to manipulate the truth, mislead the public, and influence our elections. Following Joe Biden’s unequivocal victory against Donald Trump in the 2020 election, Fox News anchors started to panic. They swapped out the truth about Biden for lies about Trump, and their stories about voting irregularities and “rigged” systems fueled a fire of misinformation, hate, and even violence. In the wake of Fox’s historic $787 million Dominion settlement, and with the 2024 election rapidly approaching, Fox is in hot water—and it’s only getting hotter. With the lawsuits dragging the network’s shameful secrets into the light—such as Tucker Carlson’s passionate hatred for Donald Trump and Sean Hannity’s contempt for own colleagues—the future of the network, and the Republican Party, hangs in the balance. Featuring Brian Stelter’s signature “thorough and damning” (The New York Times) investigative prowess and filled with outrageous behind-the-scenes details, Network of Lies is a page-turning, urgent examination of the insidious ways the media is damaging our democracy—and what we must do to preserve it.
