One hundred years ago, Upton Sinclair wrote about the perversion of what we now call the mainstream news media in a book he regarded as one of his most important works: The Brasscheck.
It sold over 300,000 copies - self-published - and remains to this day the most hard hitting and detailed coverage.
And of course. it's not used in journalism schools and you'd be hard pressed even to find a news media critic who has actually read it.
As experienced as Sinclair was with the fundamental dishonesty and smears by the press, nothing could have prepared him for this story.
A poster child case for news media maliciousness.
