Description

Inside the Conde Nast magazine world run by billionaire S. I. Newhouse Jr., Anna Wintour and Tina Brown were bold and talented British women who fought their way to the top of this male-dominated American industry driven by greed and betrayal.This book traces their careers and shows how they and the Conde Nast media empire were major media enablers in the rise of Donald Trump and Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein. At its heart, this is a parable for the changes in America's media, where corruption and easy compromise are sprinkled with glitter, power, and glory.
