A searing indictment of our time and “a concise and convincing essay on the nastiness of the CIA and the power it wields over American media” (Oliver Stone, Academy Award–winning screenwriter and director).
The American people depend on a free press to keep a close and impartial watch on national security operations carried out in their name. But as many are discovering, this trust is sadly misplaced as leading journalists are seduced and manipulated by the very secretive agencies they are supposed to be covering.
Spooked exposes the sinister truth about our nation’s media, it’s corrupt relationship with the government, and those who control both entities. It reveals a truth that many have tried to bring to light, only to be dismissed as conspiracy theorists or paranoid extremists.
Here, Nicholas Schou names those who have colluded to deceive the citizens of America. He shines a spotlight on flagrant examples of how respected reporters have sold out to the powerful agencies that control what you see, what you hear, and what you are supposed to believe.
