A shocking account of Harvey Weinstein's rise as a powerful figure in Hollywood, detailing how he exploited his position to satisfy his monstrous sexual appetites and the eventual collapse of his empire. Ken Auletta, a seasoned journalist for the New Yorker, initially profiled Weinstein two decades ago, revealing his volatile and violent nature. However, the darker narrative of Weinstein as a sexual predator remained elusive, with no one willing to speak out at the time. Years later, Auletta shared his insights with Ronan Farrow, Jodi Kantor, and Megan Twohey as they uncovered the truth behind Weinstein's actions. Despite their groundbreaking work, Auletta was left pondering the deeper questions: what fueled Weinstein's monstrous behavior, and why was it allowed to persist unchecked? How could he manage a major company while leading a double life of predation? Over three years, Auletta constructed a comprehensive examination of Weinstein's career, intertwining his extraordinary successes with the brutality that left many lives shattered. Through interviews with film stars, Miramax employees, and even Weinstein's brother, Auletta paints a complex portrait of a predator and the enabling power structures within Hollywood. Understanding Weinstein's web of influence sheds light on the many other hidden webs that likely still exist.

An intimate and profound reckoning with the changes buffeting the $2 trillion global advertising and marketing business from the perspective of its most powerful players, by the bestselling author of Googled

There are companies that create waves and those that ride or are drowned by them. This is a ride on the Google wave, and the fullest account of how it formed and crashed into traditional media businesses. With unprecedented access to Google's founders and executives, as well as to those in media who are struggling to keep their heads above water, Ken Auletta reveals how the industry is being disrupted and redefined.Auletta goes inside Google's closed-door meetings, introducing Google's notoriously private founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, as well as those who work with - and against - them. In Googled, the reader discovers the 'secret sauce' of the company's success and why the worlds of 'new' and 'old' media often communicate as if residents of different planets. It may send chills down traditionalists' spines, but it's a crucial roadmap to the future of media business: the Google story may well be the canary in the coal mine.Googled is candid, objective and authoritative. Crucially, it's not just a history or reportage: it's ahead of the curve and unlike any other Google books, which tend to have been near-histories, somewhat starstruck, now out of date or which fail to look at the full synthesis of business and technology.

Auletta has written the first book-length retrospective on the volatile Turner and his roller-coaster career, and received the active cooperation of Turner himself, including 15 hours of taped interviews.
