Two veteran journalists deconstruct the conspiracy to ruin the Clintons and how the news media helped in the process.
"A necessary text for anyone interested in how the interwoven interests of Clinton haters, politicians, and the press led to impeachment." - The New York Review of Books
When Hillary Clinton spoke of "a vast right-wing conspiracy" determined to bring down the president, many people dismissed the idea. Yet if the first lady's accusation was exaggerated, the facts that have since emerged point toward a covert and often concerted effort by Bill Clinton's enemies-abetted by his own reckless behavior-which led inexorably to impeachment. Clinton's foes launched a cascade of well-financed attacks that undermined American democracy and nearly destroyed the Clinton presidency.
In vivid prose, Joe Conason and Gene Lyons, two award-winning veteran journalists, identify the antagonists, reveal their tactics, trace the millions of dollars that subsidized them, and examine how and why mainstream news organizations aided those who were determined to bring down Bill Clinton, The Hunting of the President may very well be the All the President's Men of this political regime.
"The true story of those pursuing imagined demons is more entertaining and instructive than the fevered fantasies spun to frighten us . . . On the Clinton scandals, this is the book by which to judge all others." - The Denver Post
"A dense, penetrating . . .walk down the back alleys of what Hillary Clinton famously called a 'vast right-wing conspiracy'. . . . Dogged and thorough." - The Boston Globe
"[An] eminently readable and thorough-as well as thoroughly maddening-study." - Seattle Weekly
"The story of the Clinton scandals is a tortuous, labyrinthine puzzle, and Conason and Lyons do their best to simplify it. . . . Readers . . . will nevertheless gain a considerably more balanced and complex picture of the road to impeachment." - Publishers Weekly
