Publisher Description:
In this hard-hitting inside story, Norman Pearlstine shows that confidentiality has become a weapon in the White Housea (TM)s war on the press. Pearlstine calls on Congress to pass a federal shield law protecting journalists from the needless intrusions of government; at the same time, he calls on the press to name its sources whenever possible. Off the Record is a powerful argument, with the vividness and narrative drive of the best long-form journalism.
