內容簡介

內容簡介 普立茲新聞獎得主，調查記者羅南‧法羅揭露集團如何使用最慣用的「捕殺」手段掩蓋真相 「捕殺」是指透過買斷新聞，防止不利消息曝光的一種手段。2017年，羅南‧法羅因為例行的採訪調查因而讓他得知一個可怕的謠言：好萊塢一位最有權勢的製片大亨其實是一個大色魔，被被害人的恐懼、金錢和強迫沉默的陰謀所保護。當法羅著手調查越接近真相，幕後黑手、頂尖律師和私人偵探則開始進行一連串的秘密恐嚇行為，不但威脅他的職業生涯，還監視他的一舉一動。 直到現在，法羅和他的團隊仍莫名其妙遭受抵制。一連串的線索都顯示出不論是好萊塢或是華盛頓，都在利用捕殺的手段掩蓋腐敗的事實。這是一個關於富人與集團如何透過監控與恐嚇手段威脅新聞工作者的故事，這也是全國女性冒著一切風險也要揭露恐怖真相的全球運動。 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 explained-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 the culture.
