Alec Klein is a best-selling author and award-winning journalist formerly of the Washington Post and Wall Street Journal. His groundbreaking investigations have uncovered a wide array of wrongdoing and set free several prisoners who were wrongfully convicted of murder and accused of other crimes.
In Alec Klein's—new memoir, Aftermath, the award-winning journalist gives voice to the wreckage caused by the incendiary "cancel culture" that’s sweeping America—which destroyed his career and nearly took his life. Klein, a former reporter at the Washington Post and Wall Street Journal, spent much of his career investigating wrongful convictions and excessive sentences.
Suddenly, he found himself on the other side, falsely accused himself. In a coordinated media attack, he was accused of misconduct as a professor at a top U.S. university, and in a rush to judgment, before he had a chance to defend himself, his life was destroyed. What happens when you have little hope? In the aftermath, Alec gravitated to the unlikeliest of places, among the unlikeliest of people, doing the unlikeliest of things.
