Synopsis: The former White House correspondent shares “a tale of an ambitious but principled on-air journalist navigating the ego-infested waters of cable news” (Washington Post).Natalie Savage grew up focusing her ambition on her reporting career instead of her personal life. Now her efforts are paying off. Offered the title of White House correspondent—temporarily—she knows she has the grit, principles, and instincts to succeed. But first she must compete with a vacuous frat boy for the position.Navigating rating wars, sexual harassment and an international political crisis to prove herself, Natalie begins to wonder if achieving her dreams really means compromising on everything she stands for.This juicy insider’s take on contemporary journalism tackles dirty politics, the #MeToo movement, and accusations of fake news as a dedicated young woman does all she can to hold truth to power.
