Publisher Description

In his #1 New York Times best seller, Bias, Emmy Award-winning journalist Bernard Goldberg created a national firestorm when he exposed the liberal biases of the so-called mainstream media. Now, in his new blockbuster, Goldberg goes even further. He not only takes on Big Journalism, but offers a twelve-step program to help the media elites overcome their addiction to bias.

In Arrogance, Goldberg punctures the bubble in which the media elites live and work, a culture of denial where contrary views are not welcome. He shows how they base their stories on assumptions many Americans don't share-which inevitably leads to biased reporting and slanted news. With blistering wit and passion, he names names and builds his case, revealing:

How the media's coverage of the Jayson Blair scandal missed far more serious problems at the New York Times

How some of the toughest watchdogs in journalism became Hillary Clinton's lapdogs

Why the media refuse to shoot straight when the subject turns to guns

What the real truth is behind the Ms.-information put out by feminists and passed on to you by their friends in the media

Which CBS News icon is transparently liberal, according to commentator Andy Rooney

Which Hollywood celebrities say the dopiest things about America

Why some think the top journalism school in America is an intellectual gulag

Why the only kind of diversity you cannot find in a lot of newsrooms is a diversity of ideas

How some journalists, like Bob Costas and Tim Russert, do get it and how they think American journalism can be made better.

Arrogance is one of those rare programs that can change not only a powerful American institution, but the American landscape as well.
