Family Jewels Pt 4: Meddling In The Press (1975) w/ Rick Perlstein
We wrap up our four-part series on the 1975/76 Church Committee hearings with a look at the contentious, cozy, and murky relationship between intelligence communities and the press. The CIA targeted individual journalists, but often with the tacit approval of media elites.
Our guest throughout this series has been Rick Perlstein. Be sure to check out his many brilliant books!
