Best Democracy Money Can Buy An Investigative Reporter Exposes the Truth About Globalization, Corporate Cons, and High-Finance Fraudsters

"The most important journalist of our time-dominating journalism on two continents," says Britain's Tribune magazine-but in his native America, Greg Palast's into-the-gut investigative reports for BBC Television's Newsnight and The Guardian papers are all but banned. Palast has broken some of the biggest stories of recent years: how Katherine Harris stole the 2000 election for Bush by illegally removing African Americans from voter rolls (named Salon's Politics Story of the Year) and how Bush killed off the FBI's investigation of the bin Laden family prior to the September 11 attack (awarded California State University's Project Censored Prize for a report too hot for U.S. media). Palast went undercover to investigate Enron's manipulations years before American papers would touch the topic-recognized as Britain's Story of the Year in 1999. Winner of the Financial Times' David Thomas Prize, Palast is a mainstream favorite in Europe, but in the United States he's the "cult fave" (The Village Voice), Guerrilla News Network's 2002 Reporter of the Year and the "journalist hero of the Internet" (Alan Colmes, Fox TV).Palast, Greg is the author of 'Best Democracy Money Can Buy An Investigative Reporter Exposes the Truth About Globalization, Corporate Cons, and High-Finance Fraudsters', published 2004 under ISBN 9780452285675 and ISBN 0452285674.
